Wednesday, Jan. 8 Agenda


  • Bell Ringer: “To a Mouse” (where the title of the book comes from)
  • What did you discuss yesterday that you feel needs to be shared?  
    • Assessment tomorrow: need two themes with two pieces of evidence each
  • Summary vs. Analysis –find this handout and re-read it
    • Work on Body paragraphs
      • Remember to follow TIQA while writing, or at least remember to analyze each quote –explain why/how it proves your point
      • Each body paragraph should have at least 2 quotes with in-text citations.  
      • No first person pronouns! (unless in a direct quote)
    • If you finish your body paragraphs, work on your introduction
    • When you have a draft that you are ready to confer about, upload it to Turnitin and sign up for a conference.
      • Remember, Turnitin doesn’t update in real time, so only upload it when you aren’t going to work on it more (and you have all of your body paragraphs drafted)
      • 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)
  • Ind. Book Presentation work time
    • If you haven’t worked on this in a bit and you have a few paragraphs of the rough draft done, I would suggest working on this for a chunk of time
  • Final Blog comments due RIGHT NOW!
