English 9, Tuesday, March 29

Today, I collected one quotation and one response from each student. I'm looking for the following criteria:
1. Can you cite correctly? Speech and description?
2. Can you explain the context of the quote?
3. Can you infer? Can you add insight to the character based on his/her actions?
4. Can you make connections to other parts of the novel?
5. Can you support your opinions with proof from the novel?
6. Can you follow directions: i.e., how well do you follow the guidelines, read the samples, follow the tips on the "How to Write an Effective Quote Log" handout?
7. How well do you proofread?
8. Do you use the vocabulary from our list in your response writing?
9. Do you go beyond what is asked?
10. Is your responses engaging and enthusiastic?

Homework: Finish all responses (rough copy) to the quotes you have chosen. Bring the completed quote log to class Wednesday, plus 3 highliters so that we can start to use the quote log to create an essay draft.

YOU MUST BRING A PRINTED VERSION OF THE QUOTE LOG TO CLASS WEDNESDAY.
