Charting and Drafting

Grammar:

Review of coordination and subordination. See 1/24 in your daybook. 

I.  Combine the following sentences (clauses) four different ways using subordination (p. 239) and coordination (fanboys or a semicolon):

Education is an elusive word.

It often means different things to different people.
 
Done correctly, you will have 4 long sentences that say the same thing but are held together differently.

II.  Together we create a chart (outline?) of the siblings article.

 Now in your daybook, create a graphical representation of your article (or a rough outline).  Put paragraph numbers in it (if you are doing Rockwell's, you must number the paragraphs first).

III.  Look at pages 42-43 to help you evaluate the evidence.

IV.  We review the assignment sheet to see what should be in your draft.

Any time left is for working on the draft due tomorrow.  During class tomorrow you will read and write about each other's drafts.

Homework:

1.  Finish up your draft.

2. TWFTD:  a word from your article, again. Quote the article.
