Agenda Bell Ringer Finish Rough Draft (if necessary) Peer Edit

Bell Ringer Choose whether you agree or disagree with the following statement. Then, give me a reason and at least two supporting details as to why you feel this way. Be specific. Don’t just write “yeah”, or “because”… Should students be required to complete a full year of community service as a graduation requirement?

Today Take out your rough drafts that you asked to complete. Exchange your essay with a partner. Each person is to read the other’s essay and offer helpful feedback. Meaning be SPECIFIC with your advice, don’t just write “this needs work”. Tell the writer what you think they need to add or subtract. Tell them what you liked, what you think needs to be changed. Look for spelling, grammar, and punctuation issues. Write, circle, underline, highlight, etc. anything you feel needs attention.

Due Monday All papers are due at the BEGINNING of class. Please do not email me your paper and ask me to print it, I’m not Office Max. Check your printers tonight and make sure they work and have ink, do not wait until 11:00 on Sunday night and then email me some lame excuse! I will be collecting: Typed final draft Rough draft with edits and corrections Preplanning sheet Final Draft MUST be typed Single-spaced 12 font Calibri or New Times Roman 1full page MINIMUM
