IV. PROCEDURES

A. DEVELOPMENT In an argumentative essay, your task is to make the reader agree

with your opinion about a certain or controversial topic.
You have to (1) state your opinion, (2) give reasons to support your
opinion, and (3) argue against the opposite opinion.
Overall, you must convince the audience that your side of the
argument is correct.
 To convince the audience, your essay must be balanced—it must
include your viewpoint and the opposing viewpoint, or counterargument.
Even though you are arguing only one side of an issue, you must think
about what the other side would say about your opinion. After you give the
counterargument, you must refute it by showing that it is wrong. If your
essay is balanced, a reader is more likely to agree with you.

Organization of an Argument

Essay The most common type of argumentative essay has six

paragraphs. Like all essays, it begins with an introduction and ends with a
conclusion. In between are the body paragraphs where you must do three
things: support your opinion, present the opposing point of view, and tell
why that viewpoint is wrong. Opposing views or opinions can be ideas or
points for (pro) which support the issue being discussed, or ideas or points
against (con/contra) which disagree with the issue.

GUIDED PRACTICE
Directions: Make an outline out from this argumentative essay.

The School Uniform Question Individualism is a fundamental value

in the United States. All Americans believe in the right to express their
own opinion without fear of punishment. This value, however, is coming
under fire in an unlikely place – the public school classroom. The issue is
about school uniform. Should public school students be allowed to make
individual decisions about clothing, or should all students be required to
wear a uniform? School uniforms are the better choice for three reasons.
First, wearing school uniforms would help make students’ lives
simpler. They would no longer have to decide what to wear every morning,
sometimes trying on outfit after outfit in an effort to choose. Uniforms
would not only save time but also would eliminate the stress often
associated with this chore.
Second, school uniforms influence students to act responsibly in
groups and as individuals. Uniforms give students the message that
school is a special place for learning. In addition, uniforms create a feeling
of unity among students. For example, when students do something as a
group, such as attend meetings in the auditorium or eat lunch in the
cafeteria, the fact that they all wear the same uniform would create a
sense of community. Even more important, statistics show the possible
effects that school uniforms have on violence and truancy. According to a
recent survey in Hillsborough County, Florida, incidents of school violence
 dropped by 50 percent, attendance and test scores improved, and student
suspensions declined approximately 30 percent after school uniforms
were introduced.
Finally, school uniforms would help make all the students feel equal.
People’s standards of living differ greatly, and some people are well-off
while others are not. People sometimes forgets that school is a place to
get an education, not to promote a “fashion show”. Implementing
mandatory school uniforms would make all the students look the same
regardless of their financial status. School uniforms would 10 promote
pride and help to raise the self-esteem of students who cannot afford to
wear stylish clothing.
Opponents of mandatory uniforms may say that students who wear
school uniforms cannot express their individuality. This point has some
merit on the surface. However, as stated previously, school is a place to
learn, not to flaunt wealth and fashion. Society must decide if individual
expression through clothing is more valuable than improved educational
performance. It’s important to remember that school uniforms would be
worn only during school hours. Students can express their individuality in
the way they dress outside of the classroom.
In conclusion, there are many well-documented benefits to
implementing mandatory school uniforms for students. Studies show that
students learn better and act more responsibly when they wear uniforms.
Public schools should require uniforms in order to benefit both the
students and society as well.
