Block A: Today in class we worked on developing essay topics and writing effective thesis statements. Your homework tonight is to develop an essay topic that you would like to write about for your unit assignment. Remember the 4 S's of good essay topics.
Block C: Work on your outlines continues tomorrow - in class essay Thursday. I've posted a link to the Literary Analysis Writing Guide along the right hand column of the blog - check it out if you are still confused!
Block D: I know that not everyone had the chance to complete the peer editing process today. I will give you time at the beginning of class to finish editing, as the feedback that you provide will be very valuable for the person writing the story. The good copy of your short story is due on Thursday. In addition you should review the handout I gave you on your Book Talk assignment (presentations start in Nov). Start thinking about how you are going to present your chosen book for the class.
