Today we are in the lab to put any last minute, final touches on the research paper. Your printed copy is due today in class.
Today and tomorrow we will be in the computer lab a206 to work on our research papers. Come to class prepared with articles, rough drafts, outlines, etc!
Today we are in class to discuss formatting and grading of your research paper.
Your rough drafts will be checked today.
I will go over the rubric for grading (found in your packet). We will also discuss the example papers in the packet that show how your paper should be formatted. Use these examples as a guide. Your paper should look exactly the same.
After we are finished, check over your paper and give yourself a grade based on your work so far. Then exchange your paper with someone else in the class and examine their paper as he/she examines yours. By the end of the day you should have a clear idea on what needs to be done to get the highest grade possible.
Tomorrow and Friday we will be in the computer lab a206 to finish our papers.
Today, outlines for the research paper are due.
Skill- Topic Sentence: The first sentence in a body paragraph. It states what the paragraph will be about and is the point you will be proving in the paragraph. This sentence should be a direct reason why your thesis is true.
More information: Indiana University
Following the format in your packet will help ensure that you have a quality body paragraph that is thoroughly proved.
Your typed rough draft is due, in class, on Wednesday. On Wednesday we will discuss the finer grading points and do some peer editing to help get the highest grade possible. Today you will have time to start your rough drafts, and tomorrow we will be in the computer lab to start typing them.
Today and tomorrow we will be in the computer lab in room a206. Here you can work on your Song Piece or your Research Paper’s outline, or both. I will check notebooks today. I am just looking for evidence that you’ve made good use of the last 3 days in class (outlines, rough drafts, notes, planning, etc.). This should be an easy grade!
Song Piece is due tomorrow, printed out by the end of class.
Research Paper Outline is due Monday. This can be done neatly in your notebook or printed out.
