Today Dr. Porkchop made us work like mad. We had to narrow our original five choice down to three and then ONE!!
Students then had to create an outline showing their evidence for why they picked this one particular amendment.
Step 4: Dr. Porkchop has now
decided to allow Americans to retain only ONE fundamental right. You must use
all of your knowledge to convince him to keep your top choice. You will need to
write a five paragraph essay in which you argue for your top right. Each body
paragraph will contain one piece of evidence to support your choice. Your
conclusion should acknowledge that there were other amendments you could have
chosen. What you write below will help you start your rough draft!!
