What do you think is the most rewarding occupation you could have, excluding illegal activities? Write a
newspaper editorial to convince readers which occupation is the most rewarding and why.
Remember, your editorial will be scored based on how well you
develop a multi-paragraph response to the assigned topic that clearly communicates your claim
to the audience;
support your claim with arguments/reasons and sufficient details;
address the readers' concerns, opposing viewpoints, and/or counterarguments/counterclaims;
organize your editorial in a clear and logical manner, including an introduction, body, and
conclusion;
use transitional strategies to connect your ideas, sentences, and paragraphs;
use well-structured sentences and appropriate language for your audience;
edit your work to conform to the conventions of standard American English.
