(MC)
You will be given a topic, a question, a prompt, and evidence. Use that information to ORGANIZE an argument.
You will not be writing an argumentative essay.
You will complete an organizer as you have done previously.
Topic: Curfews
Question: Should cities impose a teen curfew law?
Prompt: You will organize an argument in favor of teen curfew laws.
(A curfew is a regulation requiring a person to be home at a certain prescribed time, as imposed by a parent on a child.)
Evidence 1
Positive Effects of Teen Curfew Laws
Three months after introducing curfew laws, the Dallas Police Department conducted a study to determine whether curfew laws decreased teen violence. The department found that juvenile crime during curfew hours dropped by 17.7 percent. Also, arrests during curfew hours decreased by 14.6 percent. These initial findings show that curfew laws have reduced juvenile crime and victimization.

Evidence 2
Positive Effects of Teen Curfew Laws
The developing brain of a teenager needs between nine and ten hours of sleep every night. Regularly not getting enough sleep (chronic sleep deprivation) reduces success in school. Sleep deprivation can increase emotional problems such as depression. It is suggested that teenagers avoid going out late and that they establish a regular, early bedtime. Curfew laws would force teens to come home earlier and get the sleep they need.
