Week 10

I was so glad to see you all today after our 2 week break.  What a great discussion!  Thank you for being prepared despite the time gap between classes.

Writing Assignment:

• Check the record of assignments to see if you have any incomplete work to turn in.
• Complete workbook pages 16 and 19 on Parallelism.
• Review the essay samples for essay 2 on pages 118 - 120.  Notice that these samples do not indent the first line of each paragraph.  Instead, they skip lines between paragraphs. You will need to add the indention in your essay. Do not skip lines between paragraphs.  
• Write essay 2 from your outline using the checklist on page 109.  Compose one sentence for each main proof and one sentence for each sub proof.  Paragraphs 2-4 should contain exactly 4 sentences each.  
• Add parallelism to your essay at least once and mark it so I can find it easily.  If you are comfortable with the new idea, add parallelism in a few additional places for more practice.  
• Make a copy of the checklist and attach it to the front of your essay.
• Ask an adult to proof read your paper for mechanical errors (grammar, spelling, punctuation, capitalization, etc.).  Errors are hard to spot in your own writing.
