Homework for 5/5/2011

Happy Cinco de Mayo!

Freshmen:

Tonight you will need to finish your introductions and thesis statements for your research projects.  There are a few things that you need to do with the project.

• Review the preliminary introduction you wrote for your character and make any necessary revisions in light of your research.


• Write a preliminary thesis statement that summarizes the main point you will be making about life for this character in Elizabethan England. Print a copy of the introduction and thesis for class.

In terms of structure - you should put the introduction paragraph at the top of your paper and then the thesis underneath.  I would recommend typing this and saving it as it will eventually be reprinted as the first page of your project.  You may also want to do some work on your Act III projects, you will have classtime in the next few days, but getting ahead is a good idea.
 
Juniors:
 
For tonight you need to finish your poetry writing assignment - the "Song of Myself," remember to follow the instructions on the assignment sheet.  I look forward to reading these over the weekend.  Also, you will have vocabulary cards and bookmarks due at the beginning of class tomorrow.  Be sure that you have three cards and one full bookmark.
