Persuasive

This would be completed in groups of three.

Students will be provided with a variety of nonfiction texts including essays, journal articles, magazine and newspapers articles, and books. Students will learn to annotate and analyze each reference piece. Students will do the same with at least three other nonfiction pieces that they investigate on their own in the process of seeking answers to their inquiry questions. After aanlayzing each piece of reference, students will create a synthesis paper that displays their perspective and argument on the topic.
