The Writing Process

 Developing thesis statement


A THESIS STATEMENT is the claim or stand that you will
develop in your paper. It is the controlling idea of your
essay. It gives your readers ideas of what your paper is all
about.
 A good thesis statement usually contains an element of
uncertainty, risk or challenge. It should offer a debatable
claim that you can prove or disapprove.
It should not merely announce something or state a fact.
It should introduce ideas that may challenge your
reader’s views.
