There are seven (7) kinds: Noun Clause: Used as the noun in a sentence and may function as a subject, a predicate noun, a direct object, an object of a preposition, an indirect object, or an appositive. ○ Where Ren’s teacher was working wasn't as professional outside of school hours. ○ Whoever calls monokuma a teddy bear shall face the consequences. ○ The pokemon are too happy with being with their pokemon trainer. ○ Today Bakuya was in charge of checking for food supplies.

PARAGRAPHS(naruto (all versions) edition) Paragraphs – a group of sentences that together convey a shared purpose structured around the same topic. Introductory Paragraphs (Introductions) Hook (Lead) – can begin with the title Anecdotal (Brief story to set the mood and lead the reader into the topic) Ex. Over the course of 5 years, Naruto, the boy from the hidden leaf village, the jinchuriki of the nine tail fox, has been training in order to get ready for the danger that's to come. Eagerly training hard, from day to night, trying to get stronger and perfect his jutsu that has been passed down from his father to his godparent to him, getting ready for the day the akatsuki strike. Query Based (Question that brings the reader to the topic - avoid second person POV “you”) Ex. Does the tragic backstory of a character define their moral ethics? Thesis Statements (the purpose of a piece of writing – usually one sentence in length, but can be longer depending on the purpose – must be something that is arguable) Assertion (claim - a subject + a “so what” about the subject) Ex. Naruto only made it this far in his life due to the fact that he possessed the nine tail fox and the interhited jutsu from his father, and it has been proven by film theorist matpat himself.
21
Fact (empirically verifiable but often difficult to argue extensively about better used as evidence to support a claim) Ex. The naruto run gives more of a faster time/rate speed, yet builds up stamina. Opinion (personal position on a topic) Ex. Sasuke is stronger than gaara. Belief (social, religious, or political in nature – an opinion held by many to be a fact, though it is not necessarily factual – often involves a judgement) Ex. The tale of madara uchiha and the leaf village has been passed down to generations of the uchiha clan. Generalization (uses absolute or statistical pronouns: all, always, every, never, none, most, half – avoid using this type of thesis statement unless citing the source of the data) Ex. Most of the ninjas during the fourth world great ninja war were killed off, in service. Document Based (cites a specific source, author, and position on a topic) Ex. In an interview with the creator of naruto back in 2008, he pointed out that behind the creation of that character was firstly just a demon within the body of a boy then threw the idea that later redone to create the iconic scenario at the beginning of the first manga chapter and episode, and that his character was to create some sort of empathy coming from the audience and at the same time, having somewhat similar yet unique characteristics of that of the dragon ball characters. Theory (a statement that can be tested and potentially proven - often answers a research question) Ex. Future boruto caused the destruction of konoha village. Clarification/Expansion of Thesis (could extend the thesis, preview the evidence supporting the thesis, give the purpose of thesis, establish the importance or significance of examining the intricacies of the thesis – this could be several sentences long) Ex. Future boruto caused the destruction of konoha village, as it has been heavily implied about the prowess of the johan eye he possess and also its possible that under sasuke, he somehow became a rogue ninja, implied by the headband he had that had a cut, similar to that of sasuke’s when he first left. Ex. Knowing what caused the destruction of the village will uncover the final boss. (purpose of thesis)
22
Ex. Finding the source of what caused the destruction of the village can reveal who the final boss/antagonist is, and other hints to where the story is going. (establishing the importance or significance of thesis)
Body Paragraphs (must have echoes of the thesis in each AND present evidence to support or expand on the thesis) Topic Sentences (must specifically indicate the topic of the paragraph and focus on one subject and/or area of evidence or support – could start with a “Transition of Logic” that connects to the previous paragraph to give context) Ex.In the end, there are several hints that Boruto might turn to the ‘wrong path’ and become a rogue ninja who destroyed the village. (Now every sentence in this paragraph must be related to the connection between boruto and the future first scene of the show) Presenting Evidence from Quotations (quotes should NEVER be used as individual sentences – quotes should be embedded within sentences) ORIGINAL QUOTE – “I want to be cool just like you” (a episode of boruto). Ex.Boruto said to Sarada, “I rather be like your dad than that lazy hokage my dad of mine” (a episode of boruto). Ex. “Boruto has been training with sasuke for some time now,” according to hinata, who is her mother (an episode of boruto). Ex. “Maybe it was me unlocking the byakuya like mom”, Boruto believed.(an episode of boruto). Ex. Seeing through one eye, boruto pondered, “Why am i the only one to see that black stuff” (an episode of boruto). Examining the Evidence Paraphrasing (rewording of a quote into other words of the same length without quotation marks, but still citing the source - useful for examining the quote and transitioning to your analysis of the quote) ORIGINAL QUOTE – Seeing through one eye, boruto pondered, “Why am i the only one to see that black stuff” an episode of boruto).( Ex. PARAPHRASE – “Why am i only able to see it” (an episode of boruto). Summarizing (condensing larger quotes or sections - useful for closing the examination of the quote/evidence and transitioning to your analysis of the quote) ORIGINAL QUOTE – Boruto said to Sarada, “I rather be like your dad than that lazy hokage my dad of mine” (a episode of boruto).
23
Ex. SUMMARY – “I rather become your dad than mine” (episode of boruto) Abstract Examples (hypothetical, “what if” examples that do not refer to a source – AVOID USING THEM AS EVIDENCE – but useful for examining the quote) Ex. Naruto fails at obtaining control over the nine tailed fox. Concrete Examples (actual examples that do refer to a source – useful for enhancing your analysis of the quote) Ex. According to an interview with the english cast of naruto back in 2012, voicing these characters were sometimes hard to master. Closing Sentences (must end the discussion of the topic within the paragraph with a transitional or culminating word – possibly an adverb – and should echo the thesis of the essay) Ex. Clearly, Rock Lee has been proven to have the same level of strength of naruto when it comes to hand to hand combat
Closing Paragraphs (Conclusions – should not be mere summaries of the previous paragraphs of your essay) Consequences of Disregarding the Thesis (establishing the potential consequences of disregarding the implications of the thesis – CREATING A COUNTERARGUMENT – could be one or more sentences) Ex. If naruto failed to control the nine tail fox, then the akatsuki might have a bigger handle on controlling that fox. Statement(s) of Extension (extending the consequences of disregarding the implications of the thesis – could be one or more sentences) Ex. As such, if the jinchurikis have been captured by the akatsuki, the shinobi world would be no more. Reestablishing the Significance of the Thesis (could be one or more sentences) Ex. Thus, its essential for him to take control to avoid the issue of the akatsuki. Final Sentence (connects to the hook and finishes the essay (finish your argument) – the “Smoky the Bear”/”Drop the mic”/dot dot dot moment…) Ex. So through the knowledge of the issues that are to come for untaming the fox spirit & other demonic spirits….
