Honors: After talking about transitions and doing a little more editing and revising today, you have the option of turning in the final copy of the author's craft essay either Friday, December 19, 2014 or Monday, January 5, 2015. No penalty either way. Just have a hard copy printed off the day you are going to submit it. Look over the rubric one more time (or a dozen) to be sure your paper is as strong as it can be.
Standard: We talked about introductions today. I want everyone to write an introduction that opens with a hook, offers a brief synopsis and then finishes with the claim. This is not the only way to write an introduction but it is the only way I want you to write this introduction. Tomorrow you should have a complete dog draft in class for examination. Some of you have a bit of work to do tonight. The more you have prepared for editing tomorrow, the better off you will be.
One more day and then you can rest a bit.
Until next time...
