Essay 3: Are you in favor of legalizing drugs
Part II: Now, what is the claim you are going to make about your
topic? For our essay, we are writing a persuasive argument essay
in which we make a claim and then support that claim. In the
Week 4 Assignment worksheet, we will be creating a three-part
thesis statement in which we identify the three reasons/subpoints we are going to discuss in our body paragraphs.
As the Interactive Lesson explains this week, we need to narrow
down our general topic in order to create our 500-700 word, 5
paragraph essay with each paragraph 5-7 sentences in length.
Are you in favor of legalizing drugs? What drugs, exactly? Only
marijuana? If so, all marijuana use or only medical marijuana? You

REMINDER: As you work on your thesis statement for Week 4, be
