i fan and medal! What information should be included in a Thesis Statement? Im doing an essay and i need to write a short paragraph regarding a thesis statmeant

OpenStudy (rockinhood):

"A thesis statement focuses your ideas into one or two sentences. It should present the topic of your paper and also make a comment about your position in relation to the topic. Your thesis statement should tell your reader what the paper is about and also help guide your writing and keep your argument focused."

Good Luck! And to reiterate, a thesis statement is basically saying what you want to convey in your essay, so like if I was to write a persuasive essay about cash being better than credit, I'd say something like: Although there are advantages and disadvantages to both, paper money stands tall in the end.

That's cheesy but it helps hopefully.
