Regents Task 2 essay--Factual Reading/Report

*See pages 11-12 in The Crucible essay packet for an actual outline and help

Okay, usually the hardest of the essays for students. This part asses many of the skills you use to do research. It requires that you interpret and analyze information, and then compose a clear argument based on sound interpretation of relevant details. You have to write in order to inform and/or persuade. You must use both documents to support your thesis---so again, this must be your first step.

In short:
*Explain what the issue presented is
*Your side you're on/why
*Support your position with examples from the article and chart
*Explain/Analyze why the information you've chosen is significant

Use the SOAPSTone method **and (ethos, logos, pathos) for persuasion
