We began the class by reviewing the introductions and conclusions handout. The instructor returned point 3 and students were instructed to write a statement of what they had proven with their three points. This statement would then be expanded into the first sentence of the funnel opening for the research paper.
Students wrote funnel openings and the instructor reviewed them in class.
Students were given the transitions worksheet and were advised that on Tuesday the class will be writing transitions between the three points. Students are to bring their three points and the transitions worksheet to class on Tuesday.
The instructor showed the students the page for The Theater Project and advised them that the play opens tonight. The number for reservations is 800 838-3006 and students will have four days to see it this weekend and also for the following weekend. The written assignment for this final paper will be posted here later today. It calls for students to apply drama terms to the play in a three- to four-page paper.
