We have completed 25% of this class!!!

Wow!! That went really fast. We're done with the first progress report period. If you were not here yesterday, or, if you need more time to finish your assessment, please do so now.

If you're one of the many people who lost documents because Word 2007 is awful, please let me know, so I can show you how to save.

If you've finished your assessment, please download and complete the "course assessment and self-assessment," on the class homepage.

If I don't have both of your articles of the week, please make sure I have them before I leave at the end of the day; they are worth 15% of your grade.

Your classwork grade includes: your original/revised piece of writing (+reflection), the direct quotation work from Monday (you chose the three quotations to use), the annotation of the 9/11 article, the Attica analytic writing piece, and the essay/car analogy.   If I don't have them, send them to me ASAP. I will be grading on Friday. IF YOU ARE SENDING MAKE-UP WORK, PUT

ASSIGNMENT IN THE SUBJECT LINE OR I CAN'T GRADE IT!!!

That is all, I think. When we return after the long weekend, we're going to move onto further annotation skills, paraphrasing, summarizing and probably our first essay.
