My Access Writing Prompt:
Survival in Snowbound

The book Snowbound describes the journey of the Donner Party and the difficult moral decisions they were forced to make in order to survive.  Do you believe their actions were justified under the circumstances?  

In a well-developed essay, write to convince the reader of your position on this issue.  Be sure to use details of the journey to support your argument.

As you write, remember your essay will be scored based on how well you:






  • develop a multi-paragraph response to the assigned topic that clearly communicates your thesis to the audience.
  • support your thesis with meaningful reasons and sufficient details.
  • address the readers' concerns, opposing viewpoints, or counterarguments.
  • organize your essay in a clear and logical manner, including an introduction, body, and conclusion.
  • use well-structured sentences and language that are appropriate for your audience.
  • edit your work to conform to the conventions of standard American English.
