CREATING A THESIS STATEMENT "An argumentative paper makes a claim about a topic and justifies this claim with specific evidence. The claim could be an opinion, a policy proposal, an evaluation, a cause-and-effect statement, or an interpretation. The goal of the argumentative paper is to convince the audience that the claim is true based on the evidence provided (Stolley)." Other things to consider according to Purdue Owl:Tips for Writing Your Thesis Statement Your thesis statement should be specific—it should cover only what you will discuss in your paper and should be supported with specific evidence. The thesis statement usually appears at the end of the first paragraph of a paper. Your topic may change as you write, so you may need to revise your thesis statement to reflect exactly what you have discussed in the paper.

Creating your thesis statement: 8th Grade Essential Questions: How would you judge life in the colonies? Consider the similarities and differences Consider religion, economy, social, agriculture Use specific evidence to support your conclusion Creating your thesis statement: Are you answering the essential question: "_______________?" Is your statement concise? Will you be able to support this statement with evidence? Will you be able to have 3 topic sentences to support your thesis statement?

Essential Question: How would you judge life in the colonies? Possible thesis statements: The colonists had a higher standard of living than British citizens. The colonists lives varied depending on where they were living. Possible 3-pronged previews The 13 colonies overall had more economic mobility, political freedom, and were generally healthier than their British counterparts. The 13 colonies were extremely different in regards to economy and religious tolerance but shared many commonalities when it came to government.

Body Paragraphs- Structure Topic Sentence: Give your reason and explain through logical thinking how it’s connected to the thesis. ⅓ Evidence (Concrete Detail) ⅔ Your logical thinking(Commentary) Supporting Evidence (CD) ( 1 (Quote or paraphrase from a source REMEMBER TO cite): -> Use logical thinking (CM) to connect your evidence back to your reason and claim Supporting Evidence 2 (CD) (Quote or paraphrase from a source REMEMBER TO cite): Supporting Evidence 3 (CD) (Quote or paraphrase from a source REMEMBER TO cite):

Body Paragraphs- Keep in mind Body paragraphs that include evidential support. Each paragraph should be limited to the discussion to ONE general idea/ Reason that your thesis is correct Each paragraph in the body of the essay should have logical connection to the thesis statement from the opening paragraph Evidence should support your thesis or explore another point of views Should show you are well-researched, detailed, and have current information It is not your job to point out why other positions are wrong, rather explain how other positions may not be well informed or up to date on the topic (Argumentative Essays, Purdue Owl)
