ENGLISH 10
I dont know about you ,but I believe in SECOND CHANCES. Therefore, I allowed each student to turn in his or her research paper rough draft Tuesday October 19, 2010. After viewing several, it was obvious that they were not ready to submit the final copy. Each student will turn in his or her draft Tuesday. I will return the drafts Wednesday. The final copy is due Friday. It is worth a total of two test grades. I CANT THINK OF ANY BETTER WAY TO BEGIN THE SECOND NINE WEEKS.
I look forward to reading each paper. I also look forward to viewing a job well done. I had to remind the class about the purpose of the assignment. Many thought that the purpose was to receive an "A". That was not the purpose. While I would love for all to receive an "A", the purpose was to allow them the ability to create your own thesis statement, gather research, and most importantly to know what you're doing. There is a purpose to every assignment. I explained mine. I wish them luck when they turn them in.
