controversial before because
some mayors already had
vaccines before even if they are
not on priority lists. Now what is
your stand in this issue? You only
have two options either you agree
or disagree. If you agree with the
issue, let us have this as your
claim or thesis statement(flashes
on screen) and if you disagree, let
us have this as your thesis
statement (flashes on screen).”

take one side. Choose only one

actually the first step in
developing your argumentative “ Step 1: Formulate your claim or
