Week of December 13th

In LA this week we are going through term edits on the persuasive essay in preparation for next Monday's due date for the final. Students have a grammar sheet on subjects and verbs to complete by Friday. Regular spelling/grammar quiz will be on Friday.

In Reading students will have a vocab sheet on which to practice the first list of term two. We will also be reading (and acting out) the play 12 Angry Men this week.

That set up you put on the board that we have to have so it isnt a auto 2...well do we need to basically make a outline or no? Can we just make a typical essay but it needs to be in that order? Im so confused...

O'Sully-
I gave you a sample of exactly what your essay should look like- the "Cats are Great" essay, if you still have it.

Basically you write a normal essay but be sure to include the required transition wording, " in the first place..."

Second have a heading that states your thesis and the three premises your body paragraphs will deal with.
