Day 51-Election Project & Chivalry Review

AICE GP-Today they completed their final test for The Once & Future King, they should have their copy of The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind in hand & a composition book for journaling next class as we will be doing the introduction for this new novel.

All Chivalry Rough Drafts have been reviewed and returned, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND that students meet with a Jr. or a Senior on the APPROVED LIST on my board before or after school Wednesday or Thursday as their FINAL COPY is due to Turnitin.com NO LATER THAN Friday 11/4 @11:59pm, some notes so far:

  1. img_3966Novel Summary Intro, give a foundation to novel
  2. Lead in to all quotes, make sure you are incorporating them into your writing
  3. DON’T Introduce the evidence (EX: For Example)
  4. img_3967Don’t Summarze what was just in a quote, explain what it shows/ exemplifies/demonstrates
  5. Connect EACH of the body paragraphs at the end to the idea of Chivalry today.
