Remember: The purpose of ARGUMENT is to PROVE YOUR CLAIM WITH LOGICAL EVIDENCE.
1. You will upload your Mesopotamian treasure paper's CLAIM and COUNTERCLAIM to Google Classroom today. Please look over the claim checklist with your claim's wording and purpose. Check for active verbs and blueprint. Once your wording is divine, you will need to explain what the counterclaim is to your argument.
2. Once you are done, you will need to start working on the OUTLINE to your paper. Please do Step 5 of Writing first- Your 3-4 major reasons to prove your claim. These need to be broad. After you establish these reasons, you will move into Step 6 of Writing, providing specific examples for your reasons. There is an outline template found under "writing links".
