Freshmen: Today we focused on Step 5 in the essay process - draft and develop the information into a good essay. We also learned how to cite from our sources according to MLA format. You are required to use at least one blocked and at least one in-text citation in your essay. A TYPED draft is due in class on Monday, September 28. We also discussed what standard format looks like - typed, double spaced, 12 point font, nice looking paper, etc.
Sophomores: Today we finished Part III of Life of Pi and began preparation for our first Socratic Seminar. You are to use the notes I gave you (question stems, and expectations and guidelines for participants) and craft seven authentic questions you would like to pose to the group in our seminar on Thursday. Bring Life of Pi each day to class this week. Get The Power of One ASAP - we start no later than Monday. Vocab chapter 2 is due Friday.
CNF: Today we finished reading chapter 4 in Blink and took a total of 15 notes in preparation for our seminar on Thursday.
