Today we discussed the role of rubrics and self evaluation and then we reconnected with some of the terms associated with our discussion of the First World War. I gave some tips for writing good topic sentences and then we practiced and shared those as well as some good statement/support(example) sentences. I asked that you use the prompt on the brown slide to compose a paragraph for Monday. Please double-space and edit your rough copy to eliminate unnecessary words, but also to check that you've included some precise language and signpost words to guide the reader. I also asked that you use the rubric to do a self-evaluation when you've finished. One-page, double-spaced is lots; don't turn this into an essay in your zeal to do well.
