Turkey Daze
Yesterday we met. Many of the morning class was out ill. Those who were present: Dion, Andrew, Nina, Lou...shared introductory paragraphs. In the afternoon class we did the same. The difference was the quality of the writing. Andrew (8-9) and Lisa (1-3), along with Melissa, Delena, Treana, most noteworthy. Other students shared their work. Joshua (1-3), along with Sameela received, along with everyone else, direction and critique on how to improve the essays which are due tomorrow.
The morning class needs to email the essays to me, no later than 3 p.m., so I can give you feedback before Monday, Dec. 1. When you send me your work, include the words ENGLISH 201, 1-3 or 8-9 and the assignment SOCIAL ENTREPRENEUR.
Reading Homework:
We started reading Evolution of a Revolutionary by Jasmine Guy. Read up to Chapter 3. Keep a reading log for each chapter where you note: characters, themes, vocabulary, questions, arguments--yours and the authors, and brief summary of the key ideas of the chapter and whether or not these ideas are connected to those in prior chapters, if so, note where they have occurred.
