Directions: Over the next few days you will be researching and crafting your own
argument. You will use the structure we have talked about in class to write your
argument.

In the space below brainstorm some possible arguments that you could write about. .

Below is space for you to conduct your research and record it. You must find at least 2
data points that support your argument and a data point that supports the counterclaim.
For all 3 data points you must explain why the source it comes from is reliable using
claim, data, and warrant. Use the table to help you organize your thoughts.
