October 17, 2007

Homework:
Choosing the right word unit 2

Today:
Buzzword
Checked that students had their rough drafts.
Handed back vocab quiz, notebook quiz, and a grade slip.
I will accept make-up work in class tomorrow.
The slip does not need to be signed.

The good draft of the essay will not be due until we do the following:
  1. Discuss three more types of introductions
  2. Discuss how introductions match the conclusions
  3. Read sample essays and discuss flow
  4. Discuss how they can improve their sentences using extra information, like we have been doing in the daily drills.
  5. Have someone else read the paper and offer suggestions.

If all of these are done quickly, the essay will be due then.
