Freshmen: Today we focused on Step 4 of our 7 Step Essay Process, which is playing with leads and plans. We planned out the order in which the information should appear in our essays, but the more important thing we did was get an overview of several different types of lead techniques to choose from when opening an essay. Your homework tonight is to write up two different leads, each a different type and each on a different sheet of paper. Bring them on Thursday. You are also to read for 20 minutes Tuesday and Wednesday. You can read from your own book or from They Say I Say - Part II (Chapters 4, 5, 6, and 7) are due next Monday.
CNF: Today we began Freaknomics. Read the Explanatory Note, Preface, and Introduction for Thursday. No notes required.
