Wednesday, September 22

Students received their corrected paragraphs on "The Sun Still Rises in the Same Sky." We reviewed Mr. P's system for correcting writing, including the sheet of "No Excuses Conventions" and the sheet of proofreading and editing marks. Students then spent several minutes responding to comments and corrections by fixing or improving marked passages.

HW due Friday:
Read the excerpts from Mary Rowlandson's Narrative of the Captivity (pp. 40-45 in the textbook) and write a one-paragraph answer to Question #2 on page 46.
