Thinkwrite:  Look at the chart above, which is another depiction of Bloom's Taxonomy.  When you are writing a summary/ response essay about an article you have read, which of the ways of thinking above will you be practicing? Remember, you're doing several things as you write, and being both objective and subjective in the process.
     
Let's discuss the example essay from yesterday.

What is the shared assessment essay? Solo Essay #2 gives you practice for it.

I'm not going to warm you up for this reading. Part of a writer's challenge is to jump in and try to take off with you, using ONLY his writing.

This man has a POINT to make. His sword is drawn. He has WORKED at this. Please read and think.

Take at least a page of notes about "Black Men and Public Space." Fold the page so you have two columns, and devote one side to objective notes about WHAT it says.

Homework:

1. Continue to read and take notes about "Black Men and Public Space"  on page 520 in Bedford.

2. Read the assignment sheet for Solo #2  carefully. You will be writing (typing)  the essay during class on Friday.

3. 8 AM class -- finish all the sentences on the CS or RO handout from Monday.

4. TWFTD: your choice from Staple's article, using the OED.
