Deciding your Topic

Grammar Fun:

We look at dangling and misplaced modifiers.

In your daybook, answer these questions:

1. State the problem you have decided to write about.

2.  Describe how you came to decide on that problem.

3. What is your personal experience with this problem?

4. What are some causes of this problem?

5. What solution or solutions do you have in mind?

6. What additional questions do you have relating to the topic? NOTE: If at any time you decide to look up answers to these questions, write an account of what you did and how you did it IN YOUR DAYBOOK. Put a star next to it.

Place a BIG star in the margin next to #2 of the above answers.

When you have done the above, do the below:

You do Ex. 36.1 page 381 and Ex. 36.4 page 384 in The Everyday Writer. Write correct answers in your daybook.


Homework:

1. Begin writing Draft 1 of the Problem/Solution paper, due Friday. Draft #1 must be typed. Only one copy is needed for class Friday.

2. Tomorrow is a work day. There will be time during class to work on Draft 1.
