Save daybook questions for the end of class. Book needed today? Both of them.
So, let's look at this one more time: the Prezi about sentence types.
1. THEN you are going to find examples of different sentence types in your own writing OR the article you are writing about. You will paste them into a forum in Moodle (see the highlighted section).
2. You are to open your paper in Turnitin and open your paper inWord, and check the matches and grammar markup. Make sure you give page numbers for quotes, and that you have plenty of author tags. Be extra careful when you refer to someone your author quotes or paraphrases. Use your author's LAST NAME.
3. PROOFREAD the paper that is due tomorrow.
4. Also, make a Works Cited page for this paper with your article and the Bedford Guide cited.
Homework:
1. Final Version with all drafts and comment sheets DUE tomorrow.
2. TWFTD: your choice from the article you are writing about.

Draft #2 Due and Daybook Check
Take out your hard copy of your draft and Bedford.
NOW we are going to go FULL MLA ON YOUR PAPER!!!!! Every single person should get 10/10 on the MLA score for this paper. That includes a correct Works Cited page, the format of the paper, and citing the source as you write.
Underline every QUOTE in your paper. Now, after that quote, add in (pencil in now, type in later) the page number from the book where that quote appears in the text, like this:
When Zinsser says he wants to "put in a word for the fink," I am confused (624).
Schor gives us a few options for thinking about the collection of "malcontents" that she describes. She guesses that we might think they are "funny, pathetic, or reprehensible" (635).
Note that the period is outside the ( ).
Are you quoting someone else who was quoted by your author? This is tricky; be careful and ask for help if you are not sure.
If you have NO quotes in your paper, you have nothing to do.
Now you get in the same groups as Wednesday, and read and comment upon two drafts.
Submit this draft into Turnitin in Moodle.
Hand in daybooks at the end of class.
Homework:
The final version of this paper is due Tuesday Feb. 18.
