May 30th - Writing and Finals

Hello everyone,

We talked a lot about writing today. I hope that the outlines we worked on in class helped you start your essays.

First, let me tell you about this week's writing assignment:

For writing #7, you will need to choose one topic

1. What is the most popular sport in your country? Why do you think it is the most popular?
2. What is something that is very popular in your country? Why is it popular?

This assignment has to be at least 5 paragraphs long, and it is due Tuesday, June 5th. We will edit the essay in class; practicing peer editing.

The second topic we talked about today is our writing final. Here is the information:

For our final, you will choose one essay you have written this quarter and edit it into a final draft. A final draft has very little to no mistakes and will use everything we learned this quarter. The final draft is due June 22nd, and we will be working on these every Wednesday for the rest of June.

I am looking forward to reading a lot of great essays.

Adam
