 Today in class we were given time to finish up the questions and reading the text that we were given yesterday because it’ll be due today. The questions would ask you to analyze and reflect on what had occurred in the paragraph. It would ask about the actions of the characters, what it could mean or symbolize, and then we had to analyze the conclusion to come up with themes that were emphasized in throughout the text 

 In class we were asked if we had any of the argumentative paragraphs that we did last week and if we did we could turn them in. Once he collected them we were told we had an assignment in canvas that would have us reading a text and then answering questions that would ask what we read on each paragraph. It would be do the next day if we hadn’t finished it, then we talked about the eoc and how the grading will work 

 Today in class we had to hand in our two argumentative paragraphs on student athletes receiving compensation and one on in social media is beneficial or harmful towards students mental and social health. We were told if we didn’t finish we could turn it in Monday, afterwards we took a test on argumentative writing that had twenty questions which asked what kinds of claim a sentence was and on what parts are included in one

Once we finished writing one of them we would switch with someone else so that we could review each others and put that what we could fix on them.
