PROMPT
In Christo and Jeanne-Claude, you read about two artists and their idea to create a giant
work of art called The Gates. The authors wrote that “it seemed as if everyone had an
opinion” about The Gates.
Imagine that you live in New York before The Gates was created. Write an editorial for
your school or local newspaper arguing either for or against the creation of The Gates.
Use facts and details from the text to explain why you think The Gates will either
enhance or disrupt the use of the park. Don’t forget to use some of the Critical
Vocabulary words in your writing.
PLAN
Make notes based on the text’s central ideas and supporting details. Then
write your opinion.
