Students will use the Essay Plan they developed in the last lesson to draft a first draft of an argumentative essay.
- A downloadable audio recording of Out of the Dust is available here.
Additional Notes:
- There are two versions of the Argument Sentence Organizer handout:
- Argument Sentence Organizer handout (blank) is completely blank, and can be used with students who are proficient with writing Reason Statements, Evidence Statements, and adding Explanation Sentences.
- Argument Sentence Organizer with Model handout contains an example of each type of statement and can be used as a model to support students less familiar with the argument structure.
- There is a slide in this lesson for each handout.
- Use your discretion to determine how to implement these slides within the frame of your lesson based on the needs of your students.
