Students handed in their Poetry Works Cited. The instructor handed out a more detailed poetry assignment sheet which we read in class. Next we chose poetry roundtable dates. The dates were entered on the table which is located in the links section of the blog (see right).
We discussed the play. We chose Saturday, Febr. 17 at 3 p.m. for the date. The instructor will call the college to insure tickets are available for all of us. If a student cannot make this date, he or she can go at another time.
The instructor handed out a worksheet on person consistency (the use of 1st and 3rd person in academic writing). We went through the worksheet.
After the break, we went to the lab and the instructor showed students around Writer'shelp.com. We did an apostrophe exercise. Students may finish this anytime in the next few days and still get credit for it. The instructor will check on Monday to see how many students finished this exercise.
The instructor gave the assignments (listed below).
We took an apostrophe quiz and students printed it out and handed it in. We will correct it next week in class.
