Wednesday, Oct. 1: Personal Essay--Final Draft & Peer Response Day (turnitin.com by 9:55 a.m.)
TODAY IN CLASS
We went over reminders about formatting on the overhead: see the original assignment sheet for the bullet points we discussed. Only one addition: when you type out the prompt in bold, just single-space that part.
Some sample review questions for the "peopling of Britain" and the Roman era; additional info on the Anglo-Saxons. In 2nd, I think we even got to the Normans!
Regardless of where we actually stopped in your class, I've linked a "notes" sheet for the Anglo-Saxon, Scandinavian (Viking), and Norman portions of invasion history: Historical Notes
FOR TOMORROW
Most definitely read yesterday's post re: essay pointers, if you neglected to check the blog yesterday.
Show up with your printed draft, ready to give and receive feedback. Make sure it's on turnitin.com before school starts (folder already open.)
P.S. -- Turns out I have a Tech Committee meeting at 7:30. So the only option if you need to print is 9:35. Please try to take care of this at home!
