Paper+Writing

=Paper Writing=

By this point you should have a good amount of research completed. What I would like for you to do today is try to get your paper started and as much of it written as possible. We're fast approaching the due date (next Thursday!) and we need to make sure you are staying on schedule. By the end of class today, I expect to see some of your paper written. I will be coming around to check your progress on starting your paper.

What I find helpful when starting a paper is making an outline in my Word document that I'll be writing my paper and listing, in paragraph form, what I want to try to talk about in that paragraph or in that section. It makes it easy for you to remember what you want there and helps keep your ideas flowing if you hit a rough point.

If you would like me to look over what you've written so far, then by the end of class print me a copy of your paper and I will look over it for you, marking things that you're missing or need to be fixed.


 * By the end of class today: I need to see what you've done thus far. I will be checking your name off that you have started your paper. If you do not show me what you've started with your paper, then you will receive a zero for the day's work.**
