Revising

Only half the class turned in a draft of the essay...don't get the senioritis too soon. Progress reports are coming out in the next week and you still have a Graduation Portfolio to complete and defend!

Some of you will be working on a finishing a draft today. Those with a complete draft...take a look at these model body paragraphs to get an idea of how much context/background you need as well as transitions.

Have a partner read your essay and give you feedback. Grab a rubric from me or use the one attached.
