Sentence Level Work and Problems

First of all, I return your Kickstarter papers. Put in portfolio.

Open your Summary/ Eval/ Response paper in Turnitin (in Moodle). NOW you can click on the middle button and see comments I have made, and see some proofreading by the software.

We discuss.

For your daybook today, find one sentence using coordination and one using subordination from your own paper, and copy them down.

Now we look at Exercise 25.2 on page 292 in The Everyday Writer. You may type or write these, but they go in your daybook for Monday. You may drop off words, but try to preserve the meaning.

Last ten minutes:  The next paper you write is called the Problem/ Solution paper. This weekend, as you finish up your Summary/ Eval/ Response paper, be thinking about a problem that you'd like to think more deeply about solving.

Here are a selection of sources that point to problems. You could use one of these, or come up with your own. Note: I prohibit gun-control related papers.
