Four Square Writing Method to write a thesis statement

Four Square Writing Method




This is the Four Square writing Method and it was developed by Judith S. Gould  and Evan Jay Gould. Normally it is used for primary kids but we also used it in junior and middle schools. Today, let us learn how to construct a thesis statement using this writing method. As you can see that the topic is placed in the middle square and in each square, you can write your keyword and when you are done with 3 keywords-in the fourth square, you can construct your thesis statement using all the three keywords.  Now, let’s see how it is done. The topic: Importance of doing community service.



I have put all the three keywords in each square and in the fourth square I have framed a sentence using the 3 keywords. Thus, forming my thesis statement. This method can be suitable to write even your introduction and body paragraphs which I practise in primary classes. I suggest you to explore more on this method.
