Today's goal: To finish your essay (or at least a first draft)

REMEMBER: YOU MUST FINISH YOUR PLANNING SHEET FIRST BEFORE STARTING TO TYPE!!

1. Look at the list of signal words I have given you (to vary up your language)
2. Make sure you include your unit vocab words! If you need to, finish first and then go back and see where you can add them in.
3. Aim for finishing most of your essay today--it will be the last day we  work on it in class.
4. Make sure you proofread your essay before you call it "complete"
5. IF YOUR ESSAY IS EMAILED, YOU MUST FILL OUT A SLIP AND PUT IT IN THE BOX FOR YOUR CLASS PERIOD!!!!!
