Week 3 Journal Question
Hi students!
First, I'd like to say that I really enjoyed reading your responses to our first journal question. Nice job!
For this week's question, I'd like to stick to the topic of writing. I heard some students discussing punctuation in their first language, and that conversation gave me an idea for this week's question. To be exact, I'd like you to describe how writing in your langauge is similar to or different from writing in English. You don't need to write a long paragraph. Rather, you can focus on one aspect of writing in both languages; for example, you might discuss differences in punctuation, or you could talk about the alphabet. You could even talk about a particular difference causes confusion. There are many other possible ideas.
I look forward to reading your responses.
Have a good weekend!
Josh
