We reviewed JP's revised synthesis essay on the value of nuclear energy. As I noted JP only cited two sources instead of 3 sources(as required by the AP exam) we worked on editing the essay to incorporate a third source. I provided JP assistance and modeling on incorporating the third source into what otherwise was a good and sophisticated essay. I then provided instruction on how syntax can be used to avoid generalizations and to add sophistication to an argument . I provided examples of using subordinate clauses to address opposing perspectives and using coordinate conjunctions to create balance or emphasize contrast.
