First and fourth periods worked on the Schaffer model for body paragraphs. We began by looking at an example paragraph from a couple of years ago, looking for claims and evidence.

The class can be hard but itโ€™ll teach you so many things you can use in the future. For example, youโ€™ll learn about prepositional phrases, Schaffer model, participles, iambic pentameter, and a lot more. To you these things all may seem useless but itโ€™s good to know how to use them effectively. These things can help you in high school and college for sure. Also if you use them successfully you future teachers and professors will be not only grateful that you know the proper way to use them, but theyโ€™ll also be impressed. Everything he teaches can help you in the long run.

From there, we looked at an introduction to the Schaffer modelย for writing body paragraphs.

Second and seventh periods continued working on the skill of inferring, focusing on pictures to gather evidence and make logical conclusions (i.e., to infer).

We’ll be applying the skill to texts shortly.
