}Bell Ringer: Seven minute review for word part test
(test Friday!!)
}While waiting for all to finish “The
Cyclops,” work on finalizing your paper
}Reminders for paper: ◦You need to aim for 30% summary/textual
evidence and 70% analysis and original opinion/thought
◦Intro Examples (shared with you)
◦Works Cited page reminder (only one entry
–the book)
◦Conferring –if you need to confer with me and
already have, we can. If you haven’t met with me about summary vs analysis, you
MUST
◦Self-edit
◦Peer-edit with someone you trust
◦Use the rubric to see if you have all of
the necessary information
◦Revising Ideas:
–Print
out your draft, read the last sentence first, then the second to last, and so
on. This allows you to focus on the
structure of the sentence rather than the content of information.
–Share
your document with a peer you trust, have them comment on it.
–Write
your thesis next to each chunk of analysis, helping you make sure that the
analysis is directly related to your thesis.
