1. BR: 4/10/17
You have 30 minutes to finish your letter to the editor, and to prepare to share with the class. Based on the response I got from many of you, you will not be required to publish your letter online (unless you want to; if you do, send me a link to where it is, and I’ll give you some extra credit for that). You will however have the opportunity to read your letter to the class, and then answering any questions your classmates may have. At the end of class, make sure to print out the letter, and turn it into the turn-in basket. Good luck, and from what I’ve seen so far, good work!

2. Editorial Letter: As a reminder, here is the assignment:
Create a Letter to the Editor based on an issue (local, national, global, etc.) that is important to you. You will need to write roughly words, and address the following:
Describe who you are (age, etc.)
Clarify the issue you are addressing; why is it important?
Give examples of people who have experienced this issue firsthand if possible.
Are there solutions? What are they? How can we make this better?
