Week #14
Unit 3: Forming and Supporting Claims

Warm-Up:
* 10 Minutes of independent reading
* Read and annotate the commentary: The Limits of Empathy.
Mini-Lesson:
Today we will learn how to write a paragraph about what we are claiming as the reasons in our argument of rescue services being provided to extreme adventurers  so that we can build a strong argument that is well supported. We’ll know we have it when our claim is clearly stated, supported with relevant and sufficient evidence, and the reasoning is sound.
Class Work:
Complete the draft of the first and second claim paragraphs (Pink Sheets). These are due at the end of the class.
