Question: Step 1: Topics and Questions

1. List three topics that interest you

2. Write at least one question about each of the topics (remember: who, what, where, when, why, and how)

Step 2: Answering your questions

1. The answers you provide to the questions help develop and focus a thesis for a researched argument

2. Answer one of the questions you posed for each of the three topics chosen.

3. The answers to the questions should be a statement/sentence that contains the words "should," "must," or "need" as a helping verb.

Step 3: Expand upon one topic.

1. Write a paragraph or two based on what you already know about this topic.

2. Try to come up with several points (or reasons) why your statement (aka thesis) is true.

3. Tip: Think about how someone would try to prove your thesis isn't true.
