What is the first sentence of a conclusion called?

You/your/You're

A common mistake we see is the difference between you, your and you're.

You - Jij

Your - Jouwn

You're - jij bent

Never use u or ur on a test. This is not English.

Assignment 2

In the next few slide you will have a short text with multiple arguments about mandatory summer reading. Some are for and some are against. You are going to take one positive argument and one negative argument and write out a more detailed argument using examples and information you know of.

Use propper grammar (capital letters, points, commas, etc.).
