The Thesis Statement

  • A good thesis statement is specific, clear, and concise.

  • Making your thesis statement clear stops the reader from getting bored. Use clear, simple language to keep them interested.

Here is an example of a thesis statement: Potato chips make the perfect snack because they’re crunchy, they’re satisfyingly salty, and they come in many flavors.

Notice how the thesis has the word “because” and applies the rule of three. It provides three reasons to support the "because." This later becomes the topic sentence for each of your body paragraphs.

Directions:

Write your thesis statement for your Romeo and Juliet essay below.

Let's break down your thesis to make sure you're on the right track.
