This week students are revisiting a previous vocabulary story. The story they have chosen needs to be revised, edited, expanded, proofread and typed. The typed, final draft (double spaced, 12 point font) is due Friday with the original draft stapled behind.
Students may type the story in the Media Center during lunch or before school if they do not have access to a computer after school hours. As always, it is important for each student to keep a copy of his/her work on a flashdrive brought to class.
Students also have begun the District 97 Diversity Essay. This essay is PERSUASIVE in nature, and the rough draft is due on Tuesday, March 17. TWO COPIES of the final, typed draft are due Thursday, March 19. NO LATE ESSAYS WILL BE ACCEPTED. Please refer to the Diversity Essay handout under Handouts to the right of this blog if you need to refer to the assignment.
Friday, March 20, is the 7th grade trip to Springfield.
