  • Research Unit: What topic(s) might you write about in your argumentative research paper?
  • End-of-Course Assignment: What is your "why?"?
HW (Class Preparation)
--You can expect to begin delivering conventions of literature lessons next class block (Friday, 12/20)!
--Read at least 10 pages of your free reading book between now and next class.  ALWAYS BRING YOUR FREE READING BOOK TO CLASS.  If you still do not yet have the "right" book in your possession, please let me know how I can help!
