working thesis
Humanities
Your “Working Thesis” Section should look like this:
II. Working Thesis
a. [Your thesis statement—single-sentence—goes here]
i. Evidence from the Textbook
1. [Place your evidence from the textbook Chapters 10-16 here (this
evidence must also include quotation marks, if you’re quoting a direct passage from the textbook, and cited. Failure to do so is plagiarism and will result in a zero for the assignment).]
a. [Be sure to include a brief explanation, in your own words, why this piece of evidence from the textbook is relevant to your Final Paper: how does this help you analyze the primary sources and answer the prompt?]
2. [Repeat this process with further evidence from Chapters 10-15]
chapter reading 10-15
