Supporting Sentences
Area of a Circle: Recap
Study link 10.9
Write out support sentences for these two thesis statements below: - You only have to write x2 or x3 support sentences. DO NOT WRITE EVIDENCE - Remember - your support sentence will form beginnings of each of your paragraphs.
In Ch.5 of Lois Lowry's historical fiction novel Number the Stars, the author clearly showed that truly courageous people will put others' safety ahead of their own.
The story of the Greensboro sit-ins portrayed in Freedom on the menu by Carole Weatherford's teaches the message that when laws are immoral, disobedience is acceptable.
Remember: You are only writing the SUPPORT sentences! - Most essays will have three, you are OK with just two. DO NOT write the essay. You are just writing out your thesis statement with your support. Use the graphic organizer to help!
