Homework for 16/17 December

Tonight you need to finish your paper! Be sure that you review all of your notes and your drafts. If you need to see me to get some feedback, that's fine - but you need to schedule an appointment with me.

Remember that when you turn in your paper you will need to turn in your rough draft, your viewing guide and your final draft. Don't forget to atttach your cover sheet to your essay and fill that out.

If you have any questions, leave a note!

  8. Awesome. Make sure that after you do a lot of cuts you go back through and reread to make sure it still makes sense.

    I have ~ 850 words on my essay, but its only 2 pages ... im going to try to end with 1000 but im afraid it will still be too short. Is it ok if its not 3pages but meets the word requirement?
