7. Students will be given 2-4 passages of non-fiction text
Students will be given 2-4 passages of non-fiction text. Each will have a title and paragraphs will be numbered.
The prompt will either require you to write an argumentative essay (it’s no longer persuasive) or an informational/explanatory essay (what we used to call expository).
The next two slides explain the shift from persuasive writing to argumentative writing.
