O.O I learned this in 5th grade... ANYWAYS...
http://dictionary.com Search word 'thesis' If you're lazy... a thesis is basically a topic sentence, but for your whole essay. It is usually put near the starting or ending of your introduction paragraph. The thesis introduces the point of the whole essay. |

Dunno about anyone else, but for, say, critical analytical language arts papers we were taught to do "cause-effect" thesis statements. And they usually go at the end of your introduction paragraph and pretty much describe what you're gonna be talking about in the essay. The cause-effect part is like "the author shows this and that about this character and therefore shows the readers that this and that".
That's all I know. Any other essays we weren't taught specifically how to do. |

Well..what are you writing about this stuff? Like what do you have to say, what's the main stuff you're looking at about this topic..
I mean really you gotta use that stuff to come up with a thesis. It sums up your paper but also has an opinion in it, cause your paper should have a point you're leaning towards to portray. |

Aren't you in university? You seriously can't be asking us how to do a thesis.
