We went over the basics of an argumentative paragraph and viewed all the parts of it. We then started to write an argumentative essay about a controversial topic. The topic I got was that baseball is boring. The essay has to include a paragraph for the point, against the point, and a middle ground between the two. I got my first paragraph done today.
I read the poem “The Red Wheelbarrow”, it conveyed themes of dependence and how tools can affect things. I answered 10 questions about the poem and how cultures are represented or affected by things like this. I also explored how different lifestyles live and their dependence on simpler things.
We took a mid book test that covered material we have read. We also continued on our character projects in where we have to create a PowerPoint with things in it based on the character.
