Grade 3

Writing W.3.1.B

Provide reasons that support the opinion.

It's fine and good to have an opinion, but if it doesn't have support, then you can't convince anyone else that you're correct. Though students may strive for "truthiness," we want them to have well-reasoned, supported opinions. Textual citations are even better.
