The End Is Near

Remember that we will meet in ATB MWF all week this week.  Next week we will meet Monday and Wednesday.

If you would like me to review your portfolio before the end of the semester, please bring it by Friday so I can return it to you next week.  Remember that having your portfolio reviewed can only help your final grade; you will not be penalized for not turning one in.

I read a piece by Susan Hauser on writing voice.  We will be doing some critical review of our writing over the next week, and it will be exciting to see what patterns have emerged from the work you've done in this class over the semester.

We listened to your advice pieces in class.  WOW!  There was incredible wisdom being shared in our group today!  I am humbled and honored that you chose to share your personal thoughts and feelings with me and the rest of the class.

Finally, we finished and reviewed the last sentence revision worksheet of the semester.  I think that's the fastest one you have ever completed.  This means you are fine-tuning your abilities!  Way to go!

For Wednesday: read up on chapter 16--punctuation.  There will be a timed worksheet to complete in class; you will be able to use your book, but if you haven't read the book or this blog, you may struggle to complete it in time and correctly.  READ YOUR BOOK!!!!  It would also benefit you to do some of the practice activities in areas where you might need clarification.  If you do some, let's go over them quickly before the worksheet, to make sure you have correct answers ready to review.
