COLLEGE LEVEL WRITING
Concrete Cold Fact #1 - It is impossible to construct a quality essay on a topic which you know nothing about. The guided readings and activities you have diligently completely, your active engagement in class and your regular review of class notes will make sure you are going into the essay armed and dangerous.
Concrete Cold Fact #2 You will not be successful on any written exam if you cannot write quality essays, and quality essays require historical knowledge.
Concrete Cold Fact #3 Remember your audience. You are writing for history teachers and historians. One of the first things you must realize is that people change the way they communicate based on their audience. You are writing about history for history
Crafting a Thesis Statement
Thesis/Claim: Student responds to the prompt with a historically defensible thesis/claim that establishes a line of reasoning.

The thesis must consist of one or more sentences located in one place, either in the introduction or the conclusion.
