Tuesday - Lecture on Claims and backing it up with Evidence

-

 Today in class we had a lecture learning about how if you don't back up your evidence and explain it, then there could be doubt. I learned how to explain my evidence and how to back it up so there is no doubt. I will take this when I am arguing with somebody, if I am in court one day, or in college or in future writing classes. I loved this assignment because the lecture was interesting and taught me a lot about court cases. I am doing good today.

Tuesday - Claims Values

Today in class, we started a project on A Lesson Before Dying, and I focused on studying racial injustice and justice. Looking into racial justice made me think about how unfair things used to be and how people fought to change it. It helped me understand why standing up for what’s right is so important.
