This is a good example of an expository thesis statement but not an argumentative one.


You have only a few hours to retry. After tomorrow evening I will not be marking anymore thesis statements. Revisit the support materials Selena  and  reshape your thesis statement. Remember it must show what position you have taken, must have three reasons/claims and must be one sentence.

Kindly note that your first two claims are close. Infections contribute to oral issues. Have you thought of the impact on the livelihood of trained orthodontists? That could be a strong claim.

but the home, school and church have been severely impacted.
My suggestion to omit the words that are highlighted.
The words might be useful in laying out the introduction.
A focus on home, school, church should provide more content or more premises for your essay. What do you think?
You need a capital c for COVID-19 (name of the virus).
OR
There is no conspiracy behind COVID-19 but media has fueled a COVID-19 related theory, it has impacted educational institutions and the health sector in many countries.

If you are not happy with this suggestion ,you can think of another but ensure there are three clear claims which will allow you to argue adequately on the topic.]]> 2020-12-15 00:55:24 UTC https://padlet.com/beverleyharris/gdq3cw3fhmni53pd/wish/1018408498 Melica Thompson https://padlet.com/beverleyharris/gdq3cw3fhmni53pd/wish/1025883139 Thesis Statement: The government should look towards the future and invest in the replacements for fossil fuel supply because the alternative energy supplies are more affordable, cause less damage to the environment and create economic development and job creation.

You now have the thesis statement  which you will use to create your sentence outline. The words that I have highlighted in green in this one should be left out of the thesis statement but you can use them in the body of the sentence outline.
The order in which you have written the claims in the thesis statement should be the same order that you present them in the  body of the outline.
You will need the word practice instead of the one you have in the thesis statement.]]> 2020-12-22 00:14:33 UTC https://padlet.com/beverleyharris/gdq3cw3fhmni53pd/wish/1036971958 Andrae Robinson https://padlet.com/beverleyharris/gdq3cw3fhmni53pd/wish/1053302532 Thesis statement
