American Literature

Today's class had a main focus of claims in your writing and how to make it flow into what you are trying to say. An important factor specified in class was the evidence. Though, we were having trouble creating a claim and not having it actually be evidence. For example, a question was would you rather go to Chipotle or Wendy's and why, while most chose Chipotle, our claims turned out to be evidence or facts, not our claim, like Wendy's doesn't have Chipotle sauce. Yes, this is true, but this can not be used as a claim because it is a true fact, Wendy's does not hold Chipotle Sauce. What can be used as a claim is that I choose Chipotle because it has larger food portions. There is no proof of Chipotle having larger food portions than Wendy's, but that is my opinion which can be used as my claim in an argument.
