Today in class, we applied what we worked on yesterday to another essay from our essay packet, specifically the essay with the header "Persuasive - 11." Follow the annotation directions from the half sheet to annotate this essay and then assign the essay a score point. Finally, using the language from the scoring guide, explain why you think the essay deserves that score point.
We then moved on to individual practice. Again, you are following the same process of annotating and assigning a score point, but you are just doing it on your own this time. You may annotate an essay of your own from your writing folder - for some of you this may be good because you already know where your thesis is and what your examples are - or you can annotate this sample essay.
The independent annotations are due Monday, January 8th after the warm up.
