Writing 102 Saturday What Happened in Class

First we covered the poetry assignment. Each student chose a genre. We chose dates for the poetry readings. Presentation dates are at the end of this post.

The instructor showed the class the exercise and worksheet for next week when we write the intro. She asked students to bring their three points with the third point on top and the other two with corrections on the bottom. We will write the intros in class and the instructor will make copies so students can begin editing them into the paper, which is nearing completion.

The instructor will book a computer lab and students should go directly to the lab. The instructor will email the room number. We will work on the poetry presentation and the intro in the lab.

We finished the Powerpoint and worksheet on usage of the colon. Students were asked to work some of the various uses they learned into their research papers.

The instructor went over some of the items that will be on the drama quiz next week.

Point 2 was returned and the instructor went over revision symbols.

The grading sheet was distributed.

Drama papers will be returned next Saturday.
