A Revolting Essay! December 14, 2016

Hi everyone,
Today in class, you took a check-in quiz on the Ch 6 Sec 2 reading.  It is a formative assessment, and you got to use your notes, so hooray for being caught up and ready for class!!

After that, you got some work time. Aside from some check-ins, at this point, you will be working at your own pace.  However, I want to make sure you are making progress, so I will be checking in with you at certain points.
Here is a suggested timeline for your essay:
  • Weds: Finish DBQ packet (classwork; finish for homework)
  • Weds homework: Choose essay option you wish to try (pending Mrs. Siecke's approval); Draft thesis statement for approval 
  • Thursday: Practice drafting introduction for historical essay; check your DBQ packet answers
  • Thursday homework: Start evidence organizer
  • Friday: Finish evidence organizer, draft topic sentences for review
  • Monday - Wednesday: Draft essay in class 
Please note: If you keep up with the suggested timeline, you can take the weekend off if you have a lot to do or just want a break. If you fall behind, you will want to complete anything not done for homework.

HOMEWORK:  If your DBQ packet is not done, you should finish it.  Please write a draft thesis statement to submit for approval.
