As JP is still working on completing the Unit 7 argumentative essay, we today reviewed his draft and my comments. I continued to emphasize the need to relate the evidence, through commentary, to the thesis. As such, as JP continued writing ,I offered comments on his use of commentary to ensure the commentary explained the relevance of the evidence. We further worked on drafting the concession segment of the essay which both acknowledges an opposing view, yet distinguishes the opposition sufficiently so as to ,in effect, support the thesis. We last discussed our assignments and test schedule for the week.
