B is better?

NOT SURE?

Middle of the room
Lyddie
Writing Argument
“Lyddie should sign the
petition because the
people she cares about
are becoming sick from
working long hours in
the dust-filled air.”

“Lyddie should sign
the petition because
working longer than
ten (10) hours a day is
really hard.”
Lyddie
Writing Argument
“Lyddie should not sign
the petition because
she will earn less
money and needs
money to buy back the
farm.”

“Lyddie should not
sign the petition
because Mr. Mardsen
would be
disappointed, and she
doesn’t want Mr.
Mardsen to think less
of her.”
Lyddie
Writing Argument
“Lyddie should sign the
petition because the
workers, by being
forced to work longer
hours for less pay, are
being treated more and
more like slaves.”

“Lyddie should sign
the petition because if
she signed it and
worked fewer hours,
she would have more
time to read.”
Lyddie
Writing Argument
