This eight-week course investigates reading and writing argument while discovering how to scaffold instruction in the classroom for reading and writing argument text with increasing rigor. As the course progresses, participants gain skills to: (1) Read argument text using rhetorical analysis and graphic organizers; (2) Evaluate the quality of an argument; (3) Connect the process of reading to writing argument; and (4) Re-design or create a reading/writing argument unit.
