However, this time you may choose your position on the issue. You may find that after doing more research, you might change your mind on how you feel about the topic.

The point of the concession paragraph is to show that you have considered alternative arguments and have an effective response to counter them.

Grabber The introductory paragraph should begin with a sentence that grabs the readers attention and interest. A grabber sentence may be a (n): Quote Startling statement Question Statement of general interest Anecdote (a brief story) Statistics Definition Background Information Some information to identify what your paper is about, such as a broad description of your topic and its significance. This is your framework within which you will make your argument. Thesis Statement/Essay Map A good thesis is a one or two sentence statement that takes a position about an issue or an event. It is a debatable statement of opinion; a concise and specific statement of your argument. A thesis statement will often answer the question So what? Who Cares? Why is this important? The essay map follows your thesis statement and states the major reasons (3) for your argument. Each reason will be expanded to create the body of your paper. The essay map is a summary of your evidence or logic. How to develop a thesis statement/essay map: Do some preliminary reading about your topic. You cannot develop a thesis unless you know something about the topic. Your thesis should answer your research question. Try this pre-thesis/essay map activity to help develop your thesis.
