Writing An Argumentative Essay Middle

School
Writing an essay on the topic of "Writing An Argumentative Essay in Middle School" can be both
challenging and rewarding. Middle school students are at a stage where they are developing their
critical thinking skills, and crafting a coherent and persuasive argument requires a thoughtful
approach.

Firstly, it's important to consider the target audience. Middle school students may not have extensive
experience with essay writing, so the language and arguments need to be tailored to their level of
understanding. This adds a layer of complexity as you must strike a balance between presenting a
compelling argument and ensuring that it is accessible to the intended readers.

Another challenge is guiding students through the process of research and evidence gathering.
Middle schoolers might be unfamiliar with citing sources and evaluating the credibility of
information. Therefore, the essay should not only present a well-constructed argument but also teach
these foundational skills.

Additionally, maintaining a structured and organized essay is crucial. Middle school students are still
mastering the art of essay structure, so providing clear guidance on introduction, body paragraphs,
and conclusion is essential. Ensuring that each paragraph has a clear topic sentence and supporting
evidence can be a time-consuming task.

Moreover, dealing with potential counterarguments and teaching students how to address opposing
views is a crucial aspect of writing argumentative essays. Middle schoolers may struggle with
acknowledging differing opinions while reinforcing their own stance. Striking the right balance here
requires finesse in language and argumentation.

In conclusion, crafting an argumentative essay for middle school students is a demanding task. It
involves not only presenting a compelling case but also guiding young writers through the intricacies
of research, evidence evaluation, and counterargument handling. Despite its challenges, helping
students develop these skills can be immensely rewarding for both educators and learners.

Kaleidoscope Eyes Analysis
Internal Comments:
No. While the idea that we choose to see the world either optimistically and
pessimistically is beautifully expressed throughout the poem, it comes across as trite in
parts. The main idea of the poem is not completely developed instead, the author spends
too much time on unnecessary side characters. In addition, there are several errors in
terms of grammar as well as imprecise word choice.

To the First Reader:


Dear Denee Freeman, thank you for your commentary on submission 10405 (
Kaleidoscope Eyes ). All of your comments are formatted correctly, and I particularly
appreciate your depth on your specific comments. In terms of things to work on, I would
recommend being more gentle in your wording. A question posed with language ... Show

The author does this by presenting a variety of snapshots of people with this grey
world view, lingering on the last snapshot of the family, to expand on the kaleidoscope
view of the children. You re obviously aware of how language impacts mood, and do a
nice job choosing their words.
I wished this poem had more showing, instead of telling, such as with the failed
marriage and the will to continue living. I think more specificity in your images, would
eliminate both some of the moments where the poem borders on cliche as well as the
moments that distance the reader from the snapshots. Personal details with make the
poem stronger, and feel like the reader is in your snapshot scenes.
The second note for revision I have for this poem is to think about the form. Right now
the form isn t particularly helping you, and in some places with the uneven spacing and
unnecessary stanza breaks, it actively hurts your poem. I would consider fewer stanzas
personally. I wonder even about having a very regimented line, stanza, or even a syllabic
pattern, except for those lines speaking about kaleidoscope eyes. Thank you so much for
submitting to Polyphony H.S.; continue
Kantian Ethics
One of the beautiful things about Kantian ethics is that it is based on the individual. The
individual can decide if their actions are worth doing to another person by weighing if
the person would want the action done to them. The Kantian point of view is completely
different from the Utilitarian point of view because the Kantian point of view deals with
the individual, whereas the Utilitarian point of view deals with the group and the needs
of the group. When you hear the words basic human rightsor the word right, normally that
responds to the individual, and rights in many cases are from the Kantian viewpoint. For
instance, when a police officer responds to someone in need, they are responding from a
Kantian viewpoint the... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
How does that define humanity as an end? The givers understand that takers have to
view them as equals; the takers must accept that givers provide the beauty and
acceptance that they need. Humanity is made up of people on both sides of the
argument and those in between. By using one person, a taker, in all actuality, forms a
dependent relationship on that person, or group of people, to provide for their needs. A
giver sustains a taker by continuously giving them what they need.

Kant said that nothing was good in itself except for a good will. By will he meant the
ability to act from principle; only when we act from a sense of duty does our act have
moral worth. We determine our duty by the categorical imperative. An example of good
will would be to use the Golden Rule, do unto others as you would have them do unto
you. Kant uses this to say that a person s actions are reflected in their actions toward
another person. As a person intends to do good to another person, that makes his effort fit
within the categorical imperative. Kant believed that there was one command that was
binding on all rational agents the categorical imperative, that says that we must always
act so that the maxim of our action can be consistently willed to be universal law. By
maxim, Kant meant the principle or rule that people formulate to determine their
conduct. If a maxim could
Comparing House Of Spirits And Cat s Cradle
The House of Spirits and Cat s Cradle are two very different books, especially when
considering the way women are portrayed in them. There could be many reasons for this
difference may be because of the authors, one a woman the other a man both having
various experiences and perspectives. When, examining these two novels the way
women interact with each other, whether the author has a positive or a negative view of
women, and how significant women are to the stories show many differences between
these two authors. Within Cat s Cradle women are not prominent characters and are for
the most part insignificant throughout the novel. One of the few times women are seen
interacting with each other is when the Girl Pool sings carols to receive chocolate bars
from Dr. Breed. This is a very unecessary part of the story which without it would not
cause major changes to the plot. Women in the book seem to interact with men mainly
and not with other women. This presents women as unimportant by showing them
making no major changes in the entity of Cat s Cradle.... Show more content on

It also shows them interacting at the university, the three legged table, organizations, and
in other situations showing women to be important parts of society just as important as
men. Isabel Allende even presents them fighting for more right such as the right to vote,
which Nívea her friends, and Carla are shown openly taking action to receive this right.
They also speak to other women trying to encourage them to take action. Even though
these actions do not seem to amount to much, it shows women openly interacting with
each other, presenting them as more than tools to advance the male character plots but, as
separate characters with their own
