The second paragraph should explain in 4-6 sentences how this article relates to the textbook chapters from this week. The third paragraph should be 4-6 sentences with your opinion on the event, the way the event was written, your objections or agreement on the article's message, etc. While the third paragraph is opinion-based, it is important to support your opinion with examples.
