proofreading personal narratives today
Assignments due Friday Feb 27 so far:
1. Completed personal narrative
Criteria for a successful personal narrative:
a. use the five senses as imagery
b. the writer learns something in the narrative
c. strong opening sentence that grabs the reader's attention
2. Opinion piece on Nick Maney's On Respect: What I Learned From Carl
The first sentence has to reference the text and the author. For example, you could write: In Nick Maney's essay On Respect: What I Learned From Carl, the author believes that...
Elsewhere in the paragraph, Maney's text MUST be quoted. Here's an example : Nick Maney states that "I think that the world would be a much better place that we could share together, as humans.
This is due Friday Feb 27. Like before, there's no length requirement, but I can't imagine students being too successful detailing and explaining their opinion in less than half a page. Font size 12 or 14, with a professional style. Final copy should be stapled on top of the rough copy and an excerpt.
