Classwork and Homework

Today in class, we talked about selecting a topic, conducting background information, and narrowing a topic of research. I also introduced the outline and annotated bibliography that you will need to do for your first draft (due July 28th), and the requirements for them as well. In addition, we also talked about how to create a good thesis statement for Integrated Essay prompts. The PowerPoint for today can be found here. (9:30 class, it is a little different than what was presented in your class, I had to revise it so it was more coherent. See, even teachers need to revise!!!)

Homework:
  • Come up with at least 2 solid ideas for your process analysis essay (you might want to review the information in your book for help.)
    • Determine if the ideas are directional or informational. 
  • Study for your Vocabulary List 8 Quiz
