Nearing the Finish Line


Aim: How do we draw our conclusions and edit and revise our argument essays?

Quick Write (emphasis on QUICK): Explain any problems, confusions, or concerns related to your argument essay.

Hooray! We are back online.

Today's Task: By now you should be drawing your conclusion and reinforcing for your readers the significance of your claim. Find yourself a peer editor, tell them your concerns or problems and have them review your essay. Ask them to score it according to the rubric below with comments supporting those scores. Everyone should have the experience of both editing someone and being edited by someone.


Here is the rubric by which it will be graded.       

Due Date: You will be expected to complete final drafts, including peer editing, by Friday. The essay should be uploaded to Google Drive and linked to your blog. Essays also should be emailed to msbecker4@gmail.com

TEN EXTRA CREDIT PARTICIPATION POINTS FOR ANYONE WHO COMES TO OPEN SCHOOL ON THURSDAY, 5:30-8 PM OR FRIDAY, 12:30-3 PM.

If you have read this far, you win the Keen Observer prize for the day. See me privately.
