Today we edited our Lear essay drafts and we chose novels for our book club unit.
If you have not yet chosen a novel, view yesterday's blog as there are links to wikipedia synopses.
The Dickens novel is no longer available but there are six to choose from. Leanne is looking for a partner to read Wuthering Heights. No one has chosen Pride and Prejudice yet. Jeffrey needs someone to choose Tess of the d'Ubervilles.
Friday: Test review
Tuesday: Have your essay, your edited copy (stapled together). Have your quotation log separate. Make sure that the essay is doublespaced and includes a title page. See the bottom of the body paragraph editing sheet for details on the cover sheet set up. PLEASE HAVE ALL OF THE ITEMS READY TO SUBMIT AS YOU WILL NEED THE ENTIRE PERIOD FOR YOUR TEST.
