We started off by working on commas. The instructor showed students a .ppt and gave them a worksheet. We wrote sample sentences.
A 3-ring notebook of papers written for the poetry assignment was distributed and students had a chance to see how others from previous classes fulfilled this assignment.
The instructor looked at a new classroom. She is going to try to get us into L301 or L304/315.
We went over the Annotated Works Cited that students brought to class. We exchanged papers and students critiqued the work of their colleagues. Twenty-five CPPs were given to students who had this assignment in on time.
The instructor handed out an internal text citation worksheet. We went over two ways to do in-text citations and also how to attribute sources that have more than one author.
The instructor wrote a thesis statement on the board. Students are to write their own and bring it to the next class session.
