Class Experience

This 5 week course will be on creating a strong thesis! A strong thesis statement is needed for writing any essay. A lot of students end up losing points due to their thesis not being effective. It is pivotal in any argument essay! This class will teach the structure of a thesis statement. It will also introduce how to find evidence for your reasonings. Lastly, it will show your student where the thesis statement belongs in the essay! It is very important to keep your information organized and concise when writing an essay, so knowing where a thesis statement belongs is very important!

Week 1: Importance of a thesis statement
Week 2: What is the structure of a thesis statement?
Week 3: Practice creating a thesis statement
Week 4: Finding evidence for your reasoning
Week 5: Placement of a thesis statement 

If writing is something that your student struggles with or if you would like to help them become a stronger writer this would be an excellent class because they will be able to create well constructed essays after learning about a thesis statement. They will also go home with graphic organizers that I have created to keep them organized in their writing process!
