The function of an argumentative text is to give reasons, make inductions, draw conclusions, and apply them to the case in discussion. 

​

Argumentative essays are often organized in the following manner:

​​

  1. Introduction

  2. Developing your argument

  3. Refuting opponents’ arguments

  4. Conclusion

​

When writing an argumentative or opinion paragraph we can think of a "sandwich" or "hamburger" to get a good structure for the text. If we are writing a longer essay, we can follow the same structure but instead of using a sentence for each part, we should use a whole paragraph.
