Thinking About Writing

We look again at conjunctions:  pages 294-296 in Everyday Writer.  You will do Ex. 30.7.  Then for homework read Section 36 (pages 354-359) and do exercise 36.1 in your daybook.  You will have to copy the sentences out, two times each.  If you wish to type this and tape it in, that would work also.


Then you think about Manning essay "Arm Wrstling with my Father." In your daybook, answer questions 1 and 2 from the "On Meaning" section.

Get in your groups and answer questions 1 and 2 from the "On Writing Strategy" section.  Then make a list together of the separate scenes Manning describes (short description with paragraph number).  Put all this in your daybook.
.

Homework:

1.  Work on your Remembering essay.  The second draft is due on Tuesday.

2.  Do Exercise 30.7 page 296 and 36.1 on page 359 in Everyday Writer.

3. Read the handout,  "Beauty" by Alice Walker.
