50 POINTS This journal entry will be completed in two parts. In this lesson, you will examine how different sentence types can add variety and interest to writing. Part of your learning will involve revising your own writing to improve sentence variety.

Now, before continuing with the lesson, you will complete the first half of your entry. Write a short, four- to five-sentence paragraph about a topic of your choosing.

Then, after you have completed this lesson, come back to the paragraph you wrote. Analyze your writing to identify areas where you could revise using different sentence types to add interest to your work. Revise the paragraph using the techniques you have learned. Your completed journal entry should have both your original and your revised paragraph.

For this assignment, you will write two journal entries that reflect on Parts 1 and 2 below.

The total length of your journal assignment must be a minimum of three pages in length, with each journal entry being at least one page.(For example, this means that you could have one journal be one page and the other be two pages, each could be one and a half pages, or some other means by which each is at least one page in length and your total overall pages total three.)

The journals will need to reflect your understanding of the time period and need to avoid being anachronistic. (Remember that this term loosely means to apply today’s values or perspectives on the past.)HY 1120, American History II

Your first journal entry needs to be from the viewpoint of an immigrant from Europe (e.g., Ireland, Italy, Germany, England, or France). Your second journal entry needs to come from the standpoint of an immigrant from Asia (e.g., China or Japan).You will need to develop an argument within both journal entries based on the bulleted items below. In your own words,justify academically the side of the argument you choose, remembering to cite your sources along the way.
