Students build a research planning page with three sections: questions to investigate, source types to seek, and possible counterarguments. They identify confirming and disconfirming evidence they will need from Animal Farm and nonfiction, then complete a quick credibility check on 3 possible source types using criteria such as author, purpose, bias, and evidence. The planning page serves as a gate for moving into structured argument building.
