History Fair Thesis and Essay

We'll be writing a five-paragraph expository essay using our thesis.

Still having trouble with your thesis and outline?
Check out this basic site:  Thesis Generator


 





Use the outline in class or this webtool:

 
 This will be handed out in class, but here's a great guideline:  http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/685/02/
Well use the five-paragraph approach. The method consists of:
  1. an introductory paragraph that states the thesis
  2. three evidentiary body paragraphs that support the thesis
  3. a conclusion that restates the thesis
Use edmodo to submit a digital copy but you'll also need to print a copy for class.
