Respuesta :

It should be claim, reason, evidence, counterclaim and rebuttal, conclusion.  I took an AP English class last year that taught me how to write a persuasive essay. 

Answer: claim, reason, evidence, counterclaim and rebuttal, conclusion.

Explanation:

  1. Claim: States your main argument.
  2. Reason: States the purpose of your argument.
  3. Evidence: Provides the reader with information that proves your argument is strong.
  4. Counterclaim: Anticipates opposing arguments and shows another perspective.
  5. Rebuttal: Presents data that disagrees counterclaim.
  6. Conclusion: Summerizes main points and caters to the reader's values.
