Important note: You will submit your introduction and body for this assignment.

View the grading rubric as you complete your work. This is your guide to a super submission.

Be sure to use the information you previously wrote in your Argument Organizer.
In three body paragraphs, remember to include:
BODY PARAGRAPH 1: a strong reason for your claim and researched fact to support your claim
BODY PARAGRAPH 2: another strong reason for your claim and researched fact to support your claim
BODY PARAGRAPH 3: a counterclaim against your argument, a rebuttal, and a researched fact to support your rebuttal
Transitions
Signal phrases to indicate quotes or facts that are not your ideas
Write three or more complete sentences in each paragraph
Write in formal style using the third person point of view.

First, plan how you'll organize and structure your argument. In the table, describe the claims, reasons, and textual evidence you'll include in each section of your argument. Include your plan for the introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion of your argument. You do not have to use all the rows provided below for body paragraphs. In addition, you can choose where and how you place your counterclaims and rebuttal.

TIP: Remember that you'll need to include evidence from at least three sources in your argument. If you need to directly reference the texts from this unit, you can access them in the Activity Resources.
