Prewrite to Identify Primary Supporting Points for a Thesis Statement

Available under Creative Commons-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International License.

Recall that when you prewrite you essentially make a list of examples or reasons why you support your stance. Stemming from each point, you further provide details to support those reasons. After prewriting, you are then able to look back at the information and choose the most compelling pieces you will use in your body paragraphs.
