Ms. Jackson:
6th Grade:Scholars are required to develop an argumentative essay pertaining to the topic of immigration. Each scholar selected a topic from the list below and crafted claims and a counter claim (pros & cons). Next scholars were required to complete a research to gather information to support their claims.
 
On Friday we will develop the introduction paragraph and for HW scholars will finish their rough drafts. Upon their return on Wednesday, I will look over their drafts and provide feedback in preparation for their final drafts. Below are the list of topics as well as an attachment of a sample argumentative essay with all the parts labeled as a guide when scholars are writing.

List of Topics

  • Immigrants take away jobs
  • Immigrants overpopulate neighborhoods
  • Immigrants increase the crime rate
  • Immigrants bring with them their bad cultures, ideas, or other factors that will destroy our economic and political institutions.
  • Terrorism attacks are increased because of immigrants 
They have to state their side of the argument, whether they agree or disagree. Then develop two claims that agrees with their side and a counter claim that addresses the other side of the argument.
