Essay writing:
We went through how to write the opposing argument and conclusion.
Here is a basic bare-bones version of the outline:
1. Intro- Define hero definition and your angle
2. Body 1- Hero's purpose
3. Body 2- How/when/where heroes are created
4. Body 3- Opposing argument acknowledging the opposition, but retaining your argument's higher value
5. Conclusion- Big picture relevance

We will be working on this for the rest of this week.  This is a working draft that we will revise after break, but this one will be graded for structure so make sure each paragraph uses the 5-Step model.
