Wednesday, 3/9
(in-person session at City Tech)
CLASSWORK: Finishing and Submitting Unit 1 and Introducing Unit 2
- Finish Unit 1! In other words, your letter or speech should be completed before our class and you should be ready to submit your final version during our class session.
- Google Doc: Make sure you have Unit 1 saved in a Google document that you can access during class.
For this class session, we will meet in N420A, which is a computer lab. But feel free to bring your own computer or tablet if you prefer to work on your own device. If things go wrong with the classroom again, I will have a backup plan.
The following does not need to be read before our class session. These are materials that we will look at together:
READING:
- Assignment guidelines for Unit 2: Opinion Essay/Op-Ed
- John McWhorter, “Yes, the Great Books Make Us Better People”
RESOURCE:
- Purdue OWL, “Argumentative Essays”
