how to write a position paper

Answered By Ravonna D

To write a position paper you need an issue with two sides, generally either for or against a certain issue.

"Should masks be made mandatory in public?" 

Is an example of a recent issue people are taking very strong positions on.

Choose a side. Compile a list of reasons why you are either for or against this issue. Write a paragraph on each one.

• Support your position and arguments by using evidence from your knowledge and understanding of social studies
