*Writer’s Workshop/Writing Conferences
*PUT YOUR THESIS AS THE FIRST SENTENCE OF YOUR PAPER (unless you have written an intro, in which case, the thesis should be the last line of the intro)
*At the end of today, you SHOULD be done with rough draft of parts of the paper: I will be looking through the papers that have been shared with me TODAY over the weekend
*You need to self edit.  I am not able to read through your whole paper, looking for grammar/spelling/punctuation –YOU NEED TO DO THIS!!!!!
*Have someone else read your paper and help you out.
