You are in groups for the planning stage. Just to be sure you understand what to do, here is the "plan" again:
1. Group members should agree on their opinion about their topic, and what you what to say (this will become the thesis statement). After you've decided a thesis statement, work together to think of good ideas for the hook, the 3 main ideas for paragraphs (including topic sentences), and an idea for the counter argument and refutation. In other words, you make an essay outline together.
2. After making the outline, students have to write the rest of the essay themselves. No essays should be exactly the same!!
3. You need to find material on the Internet that supports your ideas. Group members can share useful information, websites etc with each other as they find them.
