Assignment for Wednesday, March 21, and Thursday, March 22

Look over your exploratory essay and combine it with your research writing. (Just add it to the Google doc you've been working in.)  Make sure that the exploratory essay is consistent with the research writing you've produced. Also, make sure that your research question appears toward the end of the exploratory essay, and your thesis appears no later than the beginning of your research writing, even if you aren't sure of or confident in your thesis. Work on making an appropriate transition between the exploratory essay and the research writing.

Snow Day Update

Your assignment for Thursday (Day 4) remains the same.

Your assignment for Friday (Day 5) is the same as Wednesday's.
