What would Deborah Say? pg. 18, march 11, 2013 Scope Magazine

What Would Deborah Say?

Read the debate on pg. 19 of the March 11, 2013 SCOPE magazine. Now imagine you are Deborah Sampson in 1783. The Colonial newspaper has asked you to write a one-page essay arguing that woman soldiers should be allowed in combat. Refer to the debate for ideas on how you might craft your argument.

In your essay, use details from the play to support your points of view. You have 30 minutes to write your essay. Think about what you will write before you write it.
