After starting our unit 4 vocab experts, we spent the rest of the hour peer-evaluating the New Historicist essays. One by one, you read your essay out loud to help you and your peer group recognize strengths and weaknesses in your writing, whether this be in content, structure, evidence, or mechanics. My second hour group rocked -- we delineated specific means to help each group member excel and improve her writing.
If you were absent, you should share your essay with fellow classmates and receive peer feedback over the course of the next week. On Thursday next, we will have brief meetings regarding any further questions you have and to proof your Works Cited Page.
Speaking of MLA, how awesome is that handout with all the updates on the WC page and how to complete citations. Make sure to utilize this resource as you work on your citations.
Poetry starts tomorrow! Finally!
