Today in class we wrote a body paragraph. to write a body paragraph you need a claim. The claim you use will come from your thesis. After you state your claim you you will need evidence. In this case the evidence will come from the sources provided. Next, you must explain your evidence, and connect it to your claim. Then , state one more piece of evidence and explain it. Lastly, you must conclude the body paragraph. I have a problem with explaining my evidence, and not repeating the same things.
Today in class we read a short story that wasn't really short. The was called Rockpile by James Baldwin. We had a discussion about the story in class. The story was about a hangout for older kids called the rockpile. The rockpile was considered a bad place for younger kids because it was dangerous. One day Johns brother Roy decided to go to the rockpile even though their mother told them not to. While at the rockpile their was a gang fight and Roy was injured. The father tried to blame John but the mother defended him.
