In their proposal, they are suggesting that the school join in a national movement called “Shut Down Your Screen Week.” The parents and teachers in the group believe that not using any electronic media for an entire week would be good for students for many reasons.  \nThey have taken the proposal to a teachers’ meeting, so that teachers can discuss the issue of whether or not to ask their students to participate in the “Shut Down Your Screen Week.” The teachers have decided they would like to hear from the students before they decide.  \nThis is not a simple issue, so you need to think very carefully about it. You have three texts to read relating to the issue: “Social Media as Community,” “Is Google Making Us Stupid?” and “Attached to Technology and Paying a Price.” As you read and re-­‐read these texts, think about what they show you about the issue. Think about what position you will take and what evidence you will use to support your thinking.  \nFinally, write an essay, in the form of a letter to the teachers, explaining your thinking.  \nFor the essay, your Focusing Question is:  \nShould your school participate in the national “Shut Down Your Screen Week?” Be sure to use evidence from the texts, as well as your own knowledge, to support and develop your thinking.  \nRemember, a strong and effective piece of argument writing:  \n• Takes the audience into account  \n• Has a clear introduction  \n• States a focus/position statement clearly, precisely, and thoughtfully  \n• Uses specific evidence from the text(s) to support and develop the position, and explains that evidence logically  \n• Takes into account what people who disagree with you might think and tries to respond to that  \n• Concludes effectively  \n• Uses precise language  \n• Shows control over conventions  \nYou will have three class periods to complete this reading/thinking/writing task. The essay will have a single draft, and you may want to take some time to plan your writing before you begin work. When you have finished, be sure to proofread.  \n92  \nArgument Writing  \nCommon Core Standard W.CCR.1  \nTeacher Directions  \n• The texts provide the information needed to address the prompt, and students should independently read the texts carefully before writing. Encourage students to refer back to the text while writing and to take notes, and to mark up the text as much as is helpful to them.  \n• Students should be given three sessions for the prompt. Allow approximately 45 minutes for each, but the prompt should not be strictly timed. Students should be given as much time as needed to plan, write, and proofread.  \n• The writing must be done without help, but students may have access to personal dictionaries, or any other resources to support spelling and mechanics that they are accustomed to using while writing.  \no Be sure students have paper to take notes or do whatever pre-­‐planning they might choose to do.  \no If students are writing by hand, provide lined paper from your classroom for writing. If they are using a word processor, make sure they save their work so it can be accessed the next day.  \n• This will be first draft writing, but encourage students to proofread and correct any errors they find.  \n93  \nSocial Media as Community  \nBy Keith Hampton  \nKeith Hampton is an associate professor in the School of Communication and Information at Rutgers, and a past chairman of the American Sociological Association’s section on Communication and Information Technologies.  \nUpdated June 18, 2012 New York Times / Opinion Pages Excerpt  \nNeither living alone nor using social m","cbCaicgxVARyr1TY","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicgxVARyr1TY","pdf",1182516,"English","# Grades 6-12, Prompt for Argument Writing\n## Shut Down Your Screen Week\n# Argument Writing\n## Teacher Directions\n# Social Media as Community","[{\"question\":\"What is the main argument writing prompt for this task?\",\"answer\":\"Students write an essay in the form of a letter to teachers explaining whether their school should participate in the national “Shut Down Your Screen Week.”\"},{\"question\":\"Which texts must students use as evidence?\",\"answer\":\"Students use evidence from the three provided texts: “Social Media as Community,” “Is Google Making Us Stupid?” and “Attached to Technology and Paying a Price.”\"},{\"question\":\"What are the teacher directions for how students should complete the writing?\",\"answer\":\"Students read the texts independently, take notes and mark up materials as needed, and complete the writing without help during three sessions, then proofread and correct errors.
