Mon. Nov. 7, 2016: Reflect and Assess: Motivation and the Essay Assignment

Today, I briefly discussed the use of "because" in an essay as some of you are incorrectly using it.
I then instructed you to hand in your answers to "After You, My Dear Alphonse."
I then had you pull out the following sheets:

·         Your returned “Personality” essay

·         “How to Write a Critical Analysis Essay Introduction in Seven Sentences”

·         “15 Common Errors” booklet

·         “How to Capitalize Titles in MLA Style”

·         Your “Step Three” essay assignment sheet

·       

I I then provided you with an Essay Editing Checklist (created from the notes we developed: it is on the blog) and the Blog dates that indicate when this essay was worked on.

    You were then given a handout entitled "Assess and Reflect: The Essay." This was an in-class assignment and is major. If you were not here, you will need to come in at lunch to do it.
