Reflection 8/27/21

 Today in Mr. Rease’s class we learned how to write a body paragraph for an argumentative essay. The example we used was a court case about a man that murdered his friend. Mr. Rease showed us the evidence and how it is important to tie the evidence back to the claim. Without tying the evidence to the claim, the defendant would have been found innocent by the judge, even though he committed a heinous crime. We also used two prompts as an example for a body paragraph. We found evidence and counterclaims that we would use in the body paragraphs if we were writing an argumentative essay. I feel like we are going to have to write an essay soon, which I am dreading. I probably would not do bad on it. I just dislike writing essays.
