Learning how an exposition works-an argument T3 09 We are showing shared leadership.

We are working as a team and learning about how to write an exposition.
The provocative statement Mrs Garland gave us was 'All people in Wellington should live in Coober Pedy'. We read an exposition. Then we linked our thinking to the Coober Pedy statement.
We wrote our title. The group worked on the position statement.
The position statement sets the scene for what we believe as a group.
