Today’s Standard 2.2 Analyze text that uses proposition and support patterns. proposition support

Proposition= an opinion put forth by someone. Support= a reason that answers the question why about the proposition statement. Example: Proposition: Smoking cigarettes should be illegal. Support: Smoking causes lung cancer and other negative health effects. Support: Nonsmoking citizens cannot avoid secondhand smoke which is also harmful. Support: Treatment of smoking related illnesses is a burden on the healthcare system and increases insurance costs for everyone. WHY?

Examples of Support:  Facts, including the results of scientific research and surveys.  Statistics– facts in number form.  Examples– specific instances that illustrate reasons or facts.  Anecdotes– brief stories, such as personal experiences.  Definitions  Opinions from Experts on the subject, especially with direct quotations.

Your turn! California is considering eliminating all non-academic subjects (art, music, P.E. etc.) from middle schools to put more emphasis on math, English, history and science. State a proposition on this subject and give 3 sentences of support. Tell what kind of evidence you have used as support (fact, example, statistics, quote, expert opinion, personal experience, anecdote). Created by Cathy Shope 2007
