Thursday, November 13

Target:  To practice making a concession

1. Review a successful intro paragraph:


It’s  Friday afternoon and you’re in a cheerful mood. You and your best friend decide to hang out and take a drive. Coming out of the speakers is a song you can’t help but blast loudly and sing at the top of your lungs to. You aren’t paying much attention to the road because you aren’t the one driving; however , your friend who driving is decides to not pay attention either. She is driving 60 in a residential area, keeping inches away from the back bumper of the car ahead and answering text messages any chance she gets. You stop singing and think about how unsafe this is, but you don’t know how to tell her. She just simply needs to drive safer.

Recommendations for revision?

2.  Look at concession paragraph and REVISE:  add in conceding cues and the right conjunctive adverb.

Get into groups and read yours OUT LOUD.

TURN IN. 

3. Work on your pro paragraphs.
