1. 10 minutes- Silent reading

Make sure that the following is in your notes for Monday, November 26th. 

2. Step 6 of Writing: Extended "paragraph" structure
** Notice Step 5 has been lightly highlighted.

 I: Thesis/Claim: 
                    A. Supporting point #1 (Broad point... written as a topic sentence)
                                   1.  Example #1
                                          -warrant
                                         - backing
                                         - transition
                                   2. Example #2
                                         - warrant
                                         - backing
                                         - transition 
                    B. Supporting point #2 (Broad point... written as a topic sentence)
                                   1. Example #1
                                          -warrant
                                          - backing
                                          - transition
                                   2. Example #2
                                          -warrant
                                         - backing
                                         - transition
                   C. Supporting point #3 (Broad point.... written as a topic sentence)
                                 1. Example #1
                                         - warrant
                                         - backing
                                        - transition 
                                2. Example #2
                                          - warrant
                                         - backing
                                         - transition 

Things to note:
1. Number of examples is not a fixed formula.
2. Transitions do not have to be written out in this step. This serves as a reminder of where they will go.
3. As we evolve, warrants won't be written out in outlining... you will just know they have to always follow evidence.

TERMS: 
Claim- argumentative/ analytic stance on specific topic.

Warrant- the explanation of how your evidence connects back to your claim

Backing- Additional justification for the warrant. Secondary sources usually fill this role.

Counterclaim- Acknowledgement of opposition position.

Rebuttal- Response to the opposition's position.
