Your completed project should be at least three paragraphs in length. A paragraph is four to six sentences. Each paragraph should include the following:


  • Paragraph 1- Should contain an introduction that introduces the topic and explains that some people believe Asia made more contributions to society and some people believe that Africa made more contributions to society.

  • Paragraph 2- Should contain a claim that states your belief that either Asia or Africa made more contributions to society. One reason why you consider your belief to be true and evidence that supports your belief. You also need to include one counter claim and give a reason why the other society did not make more contributions than your chosen society.

  • Paragraph 3- Should contain your conclusion. The conclusion should review your reasons and ask the reader to share your belief.
