Read the statement below then decide whether you agree or disagree with it. Be prepared to support
your opinion with details from the book. Here's your discussion prompt:
The story of J. R. Simplot is a great American success story that anyone can
admire.
What do you think? Write a paragraph supporting your opinion and then write a reply paragraph. If you're
working with others, your reply paragraph should respond to the ideas of another student. If you're
working alone, your reply paragraph should support the opposite point of view from your own.
