Today in class we went in-depth on the topic of claims. There are three types of claims. The first is claim of fact is to argue that something is or isn’t true. Next is claim of value, this is how something does or doesn’t meet a certain criteria. Last is claim of policy, this is when you make a claim with intent to make a change. Saying that pizza is the best food is an example of claim of value. Arguing that marijuana should be legalized is an example of claim of policy.
Today was a gloomy day. On gloomy days I tend to drag throughout the day. Multiple times I was tempted to fall asleep. Once getting to your 4th period and seeing the poetry for us to analyze I immediately got discouraged as it isn’t my strong suit. Eventually I gave in to the temptations. I may have missed important information but i’m confident I got the bulk of the lesson. I’m hoping for a more upbeat lesson tomorrow.
