Freshmen: Today we moved on to Step Four in our Seven Step Essay Process, which involves write your lead and creating a plan for your essay. Today our focus was on various lead techniques to try, and your homework tonight is to type up two different leads, using a different lead technique we learned in class today for each one. Identify the technique you are using in your header. Your lead should clearly include your thesis. Print each lead on a separate sheet of paper, and identify the lead technique in your header and place your name on the back. Continue working on Membean and continue reading Speak. Write a reflection once you finish the Second Marking Period and the Third Marking Period.
Sophomores: Today we continued with our observation and analysis, induction and synthesis, and thesis formation exercise. Continue reading The Power of One (Chapters 5, 6, 7, and 8 are due Monday, with short reflections) and keep working on Membean.
CNF: Today we wrote an essay in class that focused on the degree to which Gladwell successfully accomplished the three tasks he set out to accomplish in Blink. We will start Freakonomics soon.
