Reviewed NWEA test scores from previous years.
Finished up research topic idea brainstorm sheet and began working on the formal proposal sheet. Scholarly Research Information: Use this link to help you answer question on the worksheet "The Research Process." Once you finish click on the Youtube video I have created, listen to it QUIETLY, and follow the given instructions. Added conclusions to our True Diary essay and turned them in via Google Classroom by the end of the period.
Conclusions:
Since the network was down, we started brainstorming ideas for our next unit: a research project that will culminate in a presentation probably given during finals week.
Began writing body paragraphs of our essay.
To start this we took our Structure sentences EXAMPLE Structure sentence: The use of Junior's awkward, but extroverted nature strengthens the idea that Junior feels out of place in a single community and wants to go beyond societal expectations This sentence shows Juniors desire to fit in with the world, so we recast it into a topic sentence which will lead us to write a whole paragraph about this idea. Topic Sentence: Junior views himself as an outcast who wants to be accepted for the person he is. Then we follow our trusty old paragraph structure formula: TS/PC/Q/CM/CM/CS. Check out Mr. Restad's sample paper for a full paper example. |
