English 9 SPECTRUM
Time to revisit essays. First we'll be looking at thesis statements again. Consider these topics - write a thesis statement for each one. Remember we want our thesis statements to be:
  1. Direct responses to the question.
  2. Be provable - and falsifiable. This means it needs to be a statement that requires evidence to support, and it needs to be an argument someone can attempt to refute.

1.     Should people be allowed to curse on daytime television?
2.     Should owners be legally accountable for clearing snow from sidewalks on their property?
3.     Should sexual education be taught in public schools?
4.     Should students be able to get free condoms at school?
5.     Should students who commit cyberbullying be suspended from school?
6.     Should corporations be allowed to advertise in schools?
7.     Should students be allowed to eat during class?
8.     Should more be done to protect and preserve endangered animals?
9.     Is it appropriate for students and teachers to be friends on Facebook?
