There were no handouts for today.
IN CLASS TODAY:
Today, we defined what excellent effort is.
You graded your effort on the ten sentences of the paragraph that you've written so far.
I asked you to self-identify your strenths in regard to the three sets of skills we have been working on: thesis writing and sub-claims, finding and integrating sentences, and crafting commentary sentences.
Based on the self-selection of your strengths, you then edits several other papers written by your peers, evaluating that particular skill. Effort was NOT part of your consideration.
I had you assess yourself on a graph which you can find in today's notes. Please look those over.

HOMEWORK FOR NEXT CLASS:
- Type up your paragraph, editing accordingly based on the feedback you were given today. I will ask you to hand in BOTH the draft from today and your finished product on Wednesday.
- Also, I asked you to read "New African" for next Wednesday. This is a longer story, so don't put it off. Break it up over time, and annotate like crazy!
