\nBefore you begin: On a piece of lined paper, write your name and grade, the date, the name of your school and your state, and your teacher's name. You will use this paper for writing.  \nThe Best Pet  \nThere are many reasons why people own pets. A pet can entertain you, keep you company, or even protect you! Dogs and cats are the most popular pets in America today. Some people prefer an energetic dog and others, a cuddly kitten. Which pet do you think is best?  \nYour teacher is going to read two articles aloud. One is about the benefits of owning a cat and the other is about the benefits of choosing a dog as a pet. As you listen to these texts, think about the advantages of each kind of pet. Which kind of pet is best, a cat or a dog? After you have had a chance to hear the articles a second time, you will write an essay that states your opinion and explains your thinking.  \nFor the essay, your focusing question will be:  \nWhich kind of pet is best, a cat or a dog?  \nYou will explain your thinking with facts and reasons from the articles. Your teacher will also give you a page of “Pet Statistics” which you can use to support your opinion if you would like.  \nRemember, a good opinion essay:  \no Has an introduction  \no Clearly states your opinion/claim in a focus statement  \no Uses specific evidence from the text(s) to support your opinion and explains your thinking  \no Groups ideas in paragraphs  \no Has a conclusion  \no Uses precise language and linking words to connect ideas  \n75  \no Has correct spelling, capitalization, and punctuation  \nYou will have two class periods to complete this reading/thinking/writing task. You may take notes right on the articles or on a separate sheet of paper. You may want to take some time to plan your writing before you begin work. The essay will have a single draft. When you have finished, be sure to proofread your work.  \nGOOD LUCK!
