ENG 102 Saturday 9-12:15 a.m.

Students turned in one page of their Shakespeare paper.

We had three poetry roundtables:  Clercified, whose roundtable was on "Ai (Anthony Florence)," who wrote dramatic monologue, Zieronda, on Blues Poetry and Langston Hughes, and Nadia, whose roundtable was on cinquain and Crapsey.

We went to the lab to work on transitions and subheads for the three points of the research paper. The instructor distributed a handout and explained transitions. We first wrote transitions between the three points and then we went back and wrote transitions into the paragraphs. All transitions were highlighted and the three points were given to the instructor at the conclusion of class.

Next week in class the instructor will return the three points. We will write the introduction and conclusion in class. Some students may have to write a "definitions" section. This will be determined when the instructor reads this week's papers.

To Do for Next Week:

Gloria and Ada will give their poetry roundtables.

Read pages 121-27 in Lester. This covers introductions and conclusions. We will write the intro and conclusion in class.

The Shakespeare papers will be returned and students will have an idea where to take their paper for its final revision.
