Summary/ Reaction Solo #2

If you did the homework, you have read an article in The Bedford Guide. That reading is going to be the topic of your next Solo paper. You are going to write this paper very quickly, as practice for something called the In-Class Assessment Final essay near the end of the quarter. The choices:

A. "Getting It All Done" by Gareth Cook p. 605-606
B. "The Creation of Discontent" by Juliet Schor p. 611-613.

Today we go over the assignment, and you will have about 20 minutes to take some notes in your daybook. Take time tonight to continue taking notes.

Tomorrow you will have class time to type up your Solo #2 paper. You may work on it for homework as well, but this will give you an idea how much you can accomplish in 50 minutes.

We also look at Ex. 25.2. Please do this exercise, using conjunctions AND dropping words AND rearranging information, to try and make one smooth sentence for  each. PAY ATTENTION TO MEANING!

Homework:

1. Finish Ex. 25.2 in your daybook.

2. Fill one page with notes about the reading. Use two columns, one for putting what the article says into your own words, and one for recording your reactions/thoughts/questions.

2. TWFTD:  your choice from your reading, using the OED.
