Update and Reminders

Hi, everyone. A few things for ya...

1.) Check out the newly updated "weekly schedule" and "important dates" links to the right. Also, I just updated the "course documents" link as well so that you can perhaps view upcoming TKMB assignments.

2.) Remember that over the weekend, you should finish up all Romeo and Juliet ESSAY items, including finding someone to EDIT (and sign) your rough drafts according to the 6 + 1 writing traits (and on a scale from 1 to 10):

IDEAS...thesis, evidence/citations, personal explanation
CONVENTIONS...grammar, punctuation, spelling, complete sentences
ORGANIZATION...structure (according to your outline), clear/developed paragraphs
WORD CHOICE...variety of colorful language
SENTENCE FLUENCY...variety of lengths, types
VOICE...formal, avoid slang, contractions, etc.

**The final draft should be typed, double-spaced, 12 pt. font, 2.5 pages, and with a cover page. Be prepared to turn in all additional items as well...brainstorm, outline, edited rough draft, etc.

Feel free to email me with questions, concerns, comments, and/or your final drafts!

See you all soon.
