Typing Your Directions

About the writing process?  See what magazine this is? That's right, The Atlantic.

Thinkwrite: Coates says that "Writing is an act of courage..." and "I always consider the entire process [to be] about failure." Based on what he says and what we've talked about so far, what do YOU think makes writing hard work?

NOTE: What's the difference between spoken English and written English? So, what' one way to practice writing? It starts with an "R".

Aundience, purpose and genre for the Lego project?

I hand out a guide for setting up your paper MLA style. You have time to type and create you're directions for tomorrow.


To get in the mood:
 Printer.   Legoswelove .  V-8.  Indeed. And professional builder #1. Professional builder #2. Lego artist #3.

Homework:

1. Have TWO copies of your directions printed, a copy of the answer key picture, and your pieces in their bag for class tomorrow.

2. Go to our class in Moodle in the first section, "Project with Feedback #1" to read about Lego nomenclature. Click on the link there titled "Lego Nomenclature with Pictures."

There are questions at the end of the article that should be answered in your daybook.

3. Read the green scoring sheet that I am handing out today. You will use it tomorrow. See what you will be thinking about as you build.

4. TWFTD: nomenclature.

5. TWO intentional typos today NOT visible to spellcheck. (Hmm --  this site has crummy spellcheck!)
