Objective:  I can type or write neatly the final draft of my essay by editing the corrections from two previous drafts by the teacher and my elbow partner, using the 4-Column Paragraph Organizer, and applying the “Using Quotes” and “Sentence Starters” handouts.

BW:  In their notebooks, students will write down today’s timeline for the assignment and the order of the packet items for submission:  Final draft on top, followed by second draft, two corrected paragraphs, and the final bucket organizer.

Activities:

1.  Library Work:  Students will type or write neatly the first three paragraphs of the final draft while stopping 10 minutes before the bell in each class.  Submissions are due 5 minutes before the bell to be signed off.
2. SSR–In the event that any student might complete the whole final draft before this time, he/she will add notes to the inference log in the back of the notebooks.
3. Reminder:  All work is submitted with a hard copy of the printed essay.  Writing is to be completed under the supervision of the teacher at all times.
