Guide your students' writing with this set of three multi-leveled argumentative writing graphic organizers.

Use this essay outline template for students who either do not need much support in writing a comprehensive argumentative essay and need only to jot down ideas or students who should just focus on Claim-Reason-Evidence for this round as a scaffolded step.

The claim should be an opinion or something that other people could reasonably disagree with. Reasons should each be different ideas that support their claim, and evidence should be facts -- either found through research or commonly known. 

What's Included:

  • Set of three graphic organizers: Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced

Fields Covered:

  • Introduction- Argument Claim
  • Body Paragraph 1- Argument: Reason and Evidence and Examples
  • Body Paragraph 2- Argument: Reason and Evidence and Examples
  • Body Paragraph 3- Counter Argument: Reason and Evidence 
  • Conclusion
