Presentation transcript:

Claim Review An opinion that expresses a clear answer Should clearly answer the thesis of the paper with a specific reason. Should not be a restatement of the thesis Should be able to be supported with several pieces of evidence Should be something that small enough to prove with a couple of pieces of evidence

Types of Claims Claims of fact or definition: These claims argue about what the definition of something is or whether something is a settled fact. Claims of cause and effect: These claims argue that one person, thing, or event caused another thing or event to occur. Claims about value: These are claims made about what something is worth, whether we value it or not, how we would rate or categorize something. Claims about solutions or policies: These are claims that argue for or against a certain solution or policy approach to a problem.

Thesis: Sacrificing for others is part of our nature. Practice Thesis: Sacrificing for others is part of our nature. Using this thesis statement, create two claims that answer and support your thesis. They should give specific reasons why your thesis statement is true and meet each of the requirements of a solid claim that we discussed.

Evidence Does not contain personal opinion Is either a quote or a specific example

Good interpretation…. Fills in the blanks between your claim and evidence (proof of your proof) Can be stories, anecdotes, or explanations of quotes Should end by going back to the claim

Interpretation should NOT restate or summarize the piece of evidence NOT be vague or unclear NOT be incomplete. Explain to a point where the full point has been made

Example: People and families struggle to survive on the current minimum wage due to its inability to meet their needs. In in the article “A Livable Wage,” the author argues that “It is a simple fact that some wages are so low that even a single individual, let alone a family, cannot survive on them with any kind of dignity” (2003). Working families and individuals do not make enough money to survive. Minimum wage is too low to afford basic necessities. If the government were to ensure a living wage for all of its citizens, people could work just as hard but be able to earn enough money to escape poverty.
