We used primary documents to find out who Columbus really was. Was he a good person or a bad person? We read through each document and found the Context, Purpose, and Speaker Bias.
Then we used the documents to fill out the argument map.
The Topic is: Should we celebrate Columbus day.
In the "Introduce your claim" you should tell us if we should celebrate Columbus Day or if we shouldn't.
Then give your reasons why. For each reason you must give evidence that it really happened or it is really true. Do this by using quotes form the documents you have just read.
Finally you have to address the opposing claim. If you think Columbus is bad then tell me something good he did. He wasn't all bad.
Then write a conclusion that ties everything together.
