What do you have to do? AN ARGUMENTATIVE ESSAY
INSTRUCTIONS:
- choose 3 people per group (it would be really interesting if you could mix the groups STB-STP to have different approaches and perspectives).
- each group must have at least one device, tablet or laptop to work on Google Docs.
- select the problem you would like to solve and try to bear in mind the question 'HOW MY EDUCATION AND FUTURE CAREER COULD HELP?'
- we are going to use the Conditionals, Wish, If Only.
Remember that you should have all the groups formed BEFORE coming to class because we are going to start working on this topic at 9.
