Description
50 Argument Topics with Outlines and Rubrics
When I showed this resource to a teacher friend, she exclaimed that it was the argument packet she’s been “waiting for” all her life. I laughed, but I think I know what she means. Teachers can use this set of topics frequently and in so many ways. It’s an easy-to-use print and go resource! You can even leave it with a sub!
Included are 50 engaging and controversial topics that your students will be eager to weigh in on. All of them are written on step-by-step 4-5 paragraph outline forms. You can introduce argumentative writing with the 4 paragraph model, and then have students “graduate” to the five paragraph model that includes a counterargument. Or you can go directly to the five paragraph version. Each of the topics can serve as a mini-research project. Differentiation is a cinch!
Two rubrics, final draft sheets, three outline options, and a blank topic sheet are also included.
