This one-time class will simply help to ease students' fear of writing the heart of the basic essay: the thesis statement. We will differentiate between simple and thesis statements with examples and light discussion. Course information will involve getting to know each other, recognizing a formula for thesis statements, and differentiating between good and bad examples. I am patient and non-intimidating :). I seek to make all students feel more confident about all of their future writing endeavors!
Learning Goals
Students will be introduced to a non-intimidating introduction to differentiating between simple and thesis statements, as well as a simple formula to help them write a basic, less-stressful thesis statement: the heart of the essay.
Other Details
Supply List
