Finally, I want the freedom to express my individuality through my style of dressing….

  19. 1. Debating has always been an important part of my life. For example, when I was younger, I used to argue with everyone, even the mailman. As a matter of fact, I still argue with him! In general, I have always found it easy to talk my way in and out of situations. For example, I have won many debating contests. Therefore, I have no trouble getting up in front of large groups of people and debating for hours! Some people would get nervous. Debating about things that are important to me is what I enjoy because I feel very strongly about my opinions. If it hadn’t been for the mailman, I might not have discovered debating. 2.

  20. English 10 DO NOW 3/7/14 • Gather any Do Nows you have. Turn them in to the US MAIL BOX. • Take a handout from the US MAIL BASKET • Read the lyrics • Be cool.

  21. Success Today Means 3/7/14 • You understand the parts of the essay as evident in your lyrics worksheet. • You revisit the body part of your essay by updating your outline. You may still have the original from before the debate, but hopefully you are wiser after the debate. With this new knowledge redesign your three body paragraphs. You may have better main reasons, more details, but hopefully evidence from a credible source.

  22. 8thpd DO NOW: 3/7/14 Write a Clincher Sentence for this body paragraph. Pay attention to the Topic Sentence (usually the first sentence in a body paragraph). The Clincher should relate to the Topic Sentence- remember our hamburger metaphor? Topic Sentence and Clincher are the buns. There are many reasons why I like wearing a uniform to school. First of all, it saves time. I don’t have to spend time picking out my clothes every morning. Wearing a uniform also saves money. It’s cheaper to purchase a new uniform than to go out and buy lots of school clothes. In addition, I don’t have the pressure of keeping up with the latest styles. Most importantly, wearing a school uniform gives me a sense that I belong. I really think that it adds to the feeling of school spirit and community. _____________________________________________ .
