Quarter 4, Week 6 - Taking A Stand

 

Our last topic was about Taking A Stand. Taking a stand is expressing your thoughts or opinions, whether you're demonstrating your unwavering commitment to a cause. Something's support, defense, or opposition. It is taking a hard stance on a topic and defending it your beliefs or point of view. In an essay, taking a stand can take several shapes. Making a "claim" (a statement of what should be), which is the most prevalent sort of opinionated thesis statement, is one example. Also Thesis Statement, A thesis statement clearly identifies the topic being discussed, includes the points raised in relation to the topic, and is written for a specific audience. It presents the major message of the paper and a short summary of the points you make. It is usually found at the end of the first paragraph or the introduction to prepare the readers by generating interest in the topic. It also facilitates understanding.


The activities are easy and you can do them right away. I learned that there are 3 parts to a Thesis Statement. The first part is the Topic, which tells the readers what the paper is about. However, it must narrowly define the topic, or it will be too broad. The second part is Stand / Stance / Claim, which means your assertion or your opinion. It is what you think of the issue/topic, whether you agree, disagree, support, or contradict. The third part is Reasons / Significance / Solutions, which are the “because” factors. These are the details that will support or explain your stand/claim. To do this, ask yourself why you are making that stand/claim. In addition, we also discuss the new Anglo-American Writer and he is Arthur Miller. His famous work is "Death of a Salesman". Also, the new figure of speech is 'Alliteration'. There's none I find difficult, the highlight of the blog is knowing the parts of the Thesis Statement.
