We all have opinions - but it isn’t always easy to say why we have a specific opinion. Challenge your students to state their opinion in a clear sentence, then write sentences that support their opinion. Each topic also prompts students to think of an opinion outside of their own and compare. This no-prep resource has writing prompts every step of the way to help your students write with critical thinking skills. Students can write their opinion paragraphs independently, or together as a class. 

NOTE: Please download the preview to see the list of the 30 topics included in this package.
