1. In what way do you feel more comfortable writing argumentative papers
now that you completed this LDC prompt? What did we do in class that you
found helpful? What do you think I should review in class again to help you
become more skilled at this type of writing?
a. I feel more comfortable now, because I know how to organize research
better and how to put it all together in an organized fashion. I thought that the
practice essay Insanity Vs. Obsessed that we wrote was very helpful to prepare me
and help me learn how to write argumentative essays.
2. What part of an argumentative essay do you think you still need to work
on (hook, claim, body paragraphs, transitions, counterclaim, text evidence,
explanation of evidence, etc.)? Create a brainstorming list. Then put them in
the order that you feel is most important to work on.
a. This is the order of what I think I need to work on to improve my
writing:
i.

Hook claim

ii.

Transitions

iii.

Explanations of evidence

iv.

Counterclaim

v.

Text evidence
