Expand the outline you wrote in lesson 1 about the american dream into an argumentative
research essay. as in most essays, you'll need to include an introduction, body, and conclusion.
you'll also need to support your claim with evidence,
your evidence will come from sources that you researched in lesson 1, although you should feel
free to seek out new sources if you need them. take special care to integrate your sources
correctly -- whether you're quoting them or paraphrasing them - so that you avoid plagiarism.
you want to make it obvious which words and ideas are your own and which come from sources.
in-text citations you make this distinction.
your essay should include the following elements:
• an introduction paragraph that includes an argumentative claim about the american dream
• body paragraphs that present evidence from sources and provide reasons that support your
claim
• correctly integrated and cited quotes or paraphrases from credible sources
• a visual aid, such as a chart or graph, that is relevant to the topic of the essay
