A Missed College Class

Subject: Catching Up After Monday’s Class

Hello Professor Lee,

I missed Monday’s class because my bus broke down on the way to campus. I’ve read the posted notes and asked a classmate about the discussion.

I understand that we need to compare two articles, but I’m unsure whether our response should include our own opinion or only the writers’ ideas.

Could you clarify that part of the assignment? I plan to attend your office hours on Wednesday if you think it would be better to discuss it then.

Thank you,
Sofia Martinez

VOCABULARY

Write the words or expressions from the message that are new to you or that you want to review.

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

Share your thoughts. Use details from the message to support your answers.

How does Sofia show that she has already taken responsibility for catching up?
Why is her question more useful than simply asking what she missed?
What does Sofia’s offer to attend office hours suggest about her approach to getting help?
