Writing Assignment (Maroon Day):
1. We will begin class by returning the graded literary analysis essays for our novel Tunes for Bears to Dance To. Read the comments and look at the feedback on the rubric. Open your document and make all red-ink (or blue-ink) corrections as well as any other needed changes. You do not need to share the document with me again. 2. Open the "Essay Revision & Reflection 3-18-21" survey at Google Forms. This can be accessed at the Writing Resources/Grammar Quizzes tab (Version A) on this website and at the link below. Answer the two questions on the survey with your very best writing skills. 3. Complete your argumentative essay over the public library. Consider the feedback on your literary analysis essay and make any needed changes. Check your works cited page entries against the sample I have created at the link below. List only those sources you have actually quoted, paraphrased, or referred to in the body of your essay. 4. When you are confident that you have a strong argumentative essay meeting all the requirements, please share the document with me. Label it with your last name and the phrase "Public Library Argument." 5. If time allows, work on the next IXL assignment, O.2 and O.7. These will be due after spring break. Comments are closed.
