Argument
Is intended to convince by establishing truth. Most argumentation begins with a claim, then provides supporting logical and/or empirical evidence. Arguments may also include the anticipation and rebuttal of opposing views (counterclaims). (Note that in elementary school, the standards ask that students write opinions, rather than arguments. Opinions define and defend a belief, position, or preference with reasons.)
Claim
Statement taking a position on what is true, usually one with which reasonable people might disagree. See Argument in Text Types and Purposes, Evidence, Thesis.
Essay
Brief work of nonfiction intended to analyze, inform, entertain, persuade, or express ideas and feelings; may be formal, in an academic style, or informal, with a more humorous or personal tone and less conventional structure.
Evidence
Empirical data or other sources of support (e.g., mathematical proofs) for a claim; may be selected, presented, and evaluated differently by different audiences and in different subject areas according to the norms of disciplinary literacy. See Text Types and Purposes for Argument.
