Today in class . . .
We worked in groups to write two argument paragraphs. If you were absent you will need to write both paragraphs on your own. We planned each paragraph by filling out this outline: (do not write complete sentences in outlines) 1. Claim A. Reason 1. Evidence 1 2. Evidence 2 3. Evidence 3 B. Counterclaim 1. Evidence After we wrote the paragraphs, we highlighted their parts according to this key: Claim=Pink Reason=Blue Evidence=Yellow Inference=Underline in pencil Counterclaim=Underline in pink Rebuttal=Underline in yellow Here are the paragraph prompts: Group Prompt #1: The school district believes that students loose to much knowledge over summer break. They are considering changing to year-round school. With your group decide on a claim and back it up with one reason and good evidence. Group Prompt #2: Ms. Norr is considering giving homework over Winter break. She believes this is necessary because the end of level writing test for English has been moved up to February. Present your claim with on reason, evidence, an inference, a counterclaim, and a rebuttal. Comments are closed.
