Unit 4 WK 6 Looking Ahead to Week 7

Looking Ahead to Week 7

At the start of Week 7, you'll be asked to complete a weekly check-in that asks you to briefly identify at least one strategy to improve your paragraph writing.  Week 7 covers the basic features of thesis statements, the single most important statement that a writer makes in an essay.  After learning more about thesis statements, you will be critiquing one another’s thesis statements and offering strategies for improvement.
