Informational Essay Day 2

Today we will be continuing to work on the informational essays that you began in class yesterday. You will need to complete these essays by the end of the period, so everyone should be working. As long as everyone finishes their assignment today we can begin presentations tomorrow.

That however, hinges on the fact that EVERYONE must be done writing.

If you have any questions about your paper do not be afraid to ask. I will help you with any part of your essay, but I will not write it for you. If you are having trouble finding a way to avoid second person, ask me and we will work it out.

Remember there can be no first or second person in this paper.
You cannot use contractions.
MOST IMPORTANTLY, we must be able to act out your how-to in class.

If you are having problems in any of these areas, see me immediately.

You may refer back to the previous two days blogs if you need any refreshers on what you should be doing.
