101 – October 13th-16th

Posted by Colleen Cameron on 16th October 2009

Today we discussed TEA more in depth and worked on our papers.

Rough Drafts are due tomorrow!!

14th

We peer edited in class. You MUST turn a peer edit in with your final draft, so if you did not finish today you need to find time on your own to get the editing finished.

15th

We were in the computer lab typing our final drafts.

16th

Today you turned in your Odyssey papers and we had a debate on whether or not the Odyssey should be a required part of the freshmen English curriculum. Every single class voted to keep the Odyssey!
