JOURNAL TOPIC: [do this AFTER you write your essay]

How did you do?  What affected your writing most-- your original understanding of the essay, the notes you published to your blog, the notes you brought with you today, your pre-write, an idea you suddenly got, your proofreading, or something else?

AGENDA:
1. Decide on seating
2. Essay

ESSAY PROTOCOL:
  • The only things on your desk: blue or black pen/s, 2-3 sheets of blank lined paper, your one-page notes (if you have them).
  • Please remember to write your name and period in the upper right-hand corner of EACH page.
  • Please write on one side of each page only.
  • Read the prompt carefully.
  • Do a pre-write.
  • You will have the entire period to write. If you finish before the bell, please raise your hand; once you turn in your essay you may write in your journal. Please consider your colleagues by staying quiet so they can concentrate, and remember that electronic devices are not permitted today.
  • Give yourself a few minutes at the end to reflect and proofread.
3. Journal (if you run out of time, please do this for homework-- I may collect the journals tomorrow/Wednesday, so please don't forget this)
