Don’t:

  • Be stupid (duh)
  • Be like Junho (kind of harsh, huh?)
  • Make comments about Pokemon (why would you do that?)
  • Use outside sources
  • Use fewer sources than the prompt asks
  • Repeat yourself
  • Make a conclusion like the introduction

Do:

  • Organize your thoughts clearly
  • Site at least 3 sources
  • Answer the prompt
  • Mall all three sources different
  • Use sources to support your claim
  • State your position clearly
  • (If possible) state a counterargument and your rebuttal

Strategy:

  • Stick with what you should do and stay away from what you shouldn’t do
  • (Just for you Nakayla) Be like a ninja; aka Nakayla
  • Think to yourself “What would Zach do?”
