Change My Mind: Pot Was Legalized to Keep You Stupid (Synthesis Essay)

$7.99

Borrowing a page from the playbook of Steven Blake Crowder, I pull up to the party and provocatively proclaim: Pot was legalized to keep you stupid!

In this writing workshop video, I demonstrate for students how to house an argument in their essay from start-to-finish all while wielding my heuristics of the declarative/inverted thesis (for introductory paragraphs) as well as the syllogistic method heuristic (for body paragraphs) … I even illustrate how to tag a conclusion paragraph on the tail end of the composition.

This is a synthesis paper, but in saying that, given that most kids have strong opinions on this topic – I have students locate their own sources.

Slides featured in YouTube video available for download.

Any questions, please send to teachingwritingcoach@gmail.com
