Persuasive Writing Introductory Paragraph Review

Directions: Read the introductory paragraphs. Identify the THESIS STATEMENT (the Point). Based on the preview of main points, determine what the next paragraphs will be about.

1. The other day when I was walking to school, I saw a street cleaner sit in the truck while his partner did all of the work. Both of those people were getting paid.

2. Have you ever really needed to go somewhere and did not have transportation? People under the age of 14 should be able to drive. They should be able to drive because they might have woken up late and no one is home. Another reason is that on winter days it might be so cold that people could get bad frost bites. And also, they would be able to help with errands and picking up brothers and sisters.
