Writing Skills I, Homework for Week 9

For homework, please produce an argumentative essay in response to the question:

Should the UK withdraw from the EU?

Pay attention to the following areas when writing:

- vocab/word choice
- sophistication of syntax
- relevance of detail/supportive evidence
- structure and coherence of argumentation
- originality of thesis

Use the essay distributed in class as a guide.

In two weeks' time, we will have a practice exam in class. You have two weeks to research the following questions for this practice exam. One of these questions will be selected as the question you respond to:

1. Should the UK do away with the monarchy?
2. Should public transportation be free for everyone?

The Writing Skills I exam (not the practice one; the real one :) ) will take place on the following two dates:

Mi 20.7. 14-17h HS 10
Mo 19.9. 12-14h HS 17
