Description
“It’s just… the best.” Sound familiar? Real power in school, work, and life comes from learning how to think critically and argue effectively. This worksheet isn’t about what to think—it’s a practical guide on structure, support, and persuasion.
Why “Because I Said So” Isn’t a Strategy
Our worksheet uses the proven OREO+ method to teach students how to build arguments step by step:
- O – Opinion: State a clear claim.
- R – Reasons: Give multiple reasons to support it.
- E – Evidence: Use facts, examples, or experiences.
- O – Opinion (Restated): End with a strong conclusion.
- + Counterargument: Anticipate the other side and respond.
