You guys rock! 🙂 I was really impressed with your expositions last week. You used:
paragraphs
a great introduction
3 good reasons AND good examples to explain EACH reason
a good conclusion (where you reminded the reader that they should agree with you)
AND VERY IMPORTANTLY – you used CONVINCING words!!! 😎
Listen to some of our students’ reading their expositions and see if they can convince you to give their Hero the award!
