Help give your students the tools to write powerful THESIS statements with this fun, informative PowerPoint presentation. Using the movie Avatar as a vehicle for connection--the human is linked with his avatar, much like a thesis is linked with supporting details--this is a fun PowerPoint that has both notes for students to use AND a lesson. This PowerPoint and exercise was very successful in my own class.

Top 5 seller on Teachers Pay Teachers for high school teachers! I have been teaching high school English the past 11 years. I have taught all levels of high school English, but I prefer freshmen! They still are open to new thoughts and many are not yet jaded!
