What we have been up to!

Last Week:
We turned in the essay, so please make sure that I have your final copy as well as any drafts and other pre-writing--evaluation by peers, too. It is too late to get a good grade for turning it in on time and complete-- but you can still score well on the content and conventions grades-- take care of this ASAP if you haven't done so already.
The Things They Carried: (This link takes you to an electronic copy of the text.)
We finished reading the first story, listened to an interview with the author and discussed three different questions about this text.
THIS WEEK
Tuesday/Wednesday in-class assignment: Write an analysis paragraph that answers one of the discussion questions.
REMINDER: Analysis Writing Standards
Book Talk/Book trailers
Get one ready (your choice: talk or trailer) to present in class after you get back from the four-day weekend next week. Attached is the Schedule for Presentations
