Finding Evidence Activity
To Do
- Revisit the working thesis you have for your essay so far. That thesis makes claims.
- Make a list of evidence that will be required to prove to your reader that each claim is true. Include 3-5 items on that list.
- For each item on the list, do some initial research that helps you understand each. That research might include informal methods, such as talking to friends and classmates about their experiences.
- Include a brief paragraph (3-5 sentences) summarizing what you find in your initial research for each item on the list.
