Week at a glance September 2 - 6, 2013

This week our focus will be on revising and editing Minor Essay 1.  A rough draft of the essay is due Wednesday night.  Students will have the opportunity to do peer review and have one-on-one conferences with me later in the week.  Even as we revise and edit the first essay, students will also begin readings and analysis that will help set up their next essay.  Sorry if it's tough, but this is a writing class after all.
