3. Read the two articles on Abortion (links are below). Take notes if necessary.
a) In each article, identify the writer’s attitude and point of view.
b) Write an opinion paragraph about this topic in your notebook. Do you think abortions should be legal or illegal? Why or why not? Make references to the articles. BRAINSTORM AND PLAN BEFORE YOU WRITE YOUR DRAFT.
Remember to have a topic sentence with a controlling idea, 3 points that support the idea and a sufficient amount of details/examples for each point.
Your paragraph should be indented, and contain at least 8 sentences, maximum of 12. Hand in your paragraph to me after you finish.
