jonas decides that he will write a letter explaining that he disagrees with the principals decision because he believes that uniforms take away from students individuality. what is his best next step?
determine a topic
brainstorm different ideas
create an outline
choose an audience

Explanation:

Jonas already has a clear topic (disagreeing with school uniforms due to lost individuality) and a defined audience (the principal). The next logical step after establishing a core argument is to brainstorm supporting ideas, examples, or additional related points to strengthen his position before creating an outline.

Answer:

brainstorm different ideas
