Language Arts

Week of 11/13 - 11/17

We will be exploring different ways to challenge the way someone thinks about something.  We will also talk about how to clearly state our opinion in a thesis.  We will continue working on commentaries by looking at different ways to present information you find in research as well as discussing how to effectively close a commentary.  We will not have class on Friday as we will be gone on our last ADI of Fall Semester.
