Tuesday, August 23, 2016

Welcome-

To the first day-  It's DIAGNOSTIC ESSAYS.  The topic was in class. 


Next class-  ONLINE CLASS. 

1.  Please access Canvas and read the syllabus.  Sign and print the bottom and return with it to class.

2.  Pick two LITERARY Novels you'd like to read in class.  We will make a list and decide which two we'll read.

3.  The first real essay we'll write is  a NARRATIVE ESSAY.  Please read these two short narratives:

HERE, and HERE.

4.  If I give you something to read, I always give a test the following class period.  This is the only time I'll remind you.  :)
