A second strategy to introduce argumentative writing is to reveal two essays on the same topic--one that's written persuasively and one that's written argumentatively. Before writing arguments with two sides represented, they have to be able to identify them in anchor papers.
Maya civilization. The Maya civilization was a Mesoamerican civilization developed by the Maya peoples, and noted for its hieroglyphic scriptâthe only known fully developed writing system of the pre-Columbian Americasâas well as for its art, architecture, mathematics, calendar, and astronomical system.
Mayan pyramid. The Maya pyramids are structures built in the jungles of Central America by the Maya civilization between 200 and 900 AD. Unlike the straight sides of the more commonly known Egyptian pyramids, the sides of Maya pyramids arey steppedâsometimes for the purpose of enabling people to ascend to the top.
