Thesis and MLA--It's Much more Exciting than You Think

English 11: It's Thesis Time! I can hear the applause and hoopla from here quiet down people. Just kidding, you can continue gushing in class. I will accept all accolades in person. I went over the basics in class one being Thesis Statement and the other MLA. Click on the links if you need a refresher or were absent for  any part of the explanation.

Remember, our thesis will focus on a three point thesis and will follow the formula of: Opinion on topic, transition word/phrase followed by three elements. An example is: Access to contraceptives does not increases sexual activity amongst teen because contraception promote safe sex, access does increase teens promiscuity, and contraception promote healthy attitudes and routines when it comes to personal relationships. Thesis statements sound scary, but are really easy once you take them apart peice by piece. Don't let the idea of a thesis scare you, pick a topic that intrests you (after all we'll be working on it for a while) and find articles that back up what it is that you are setting out to prove.
