October 25

Homework

  • Writing Minutes
  • Freewriting (NASA receives a mysterious message from an astronaut that got separated from his spacecraft and flew off into space twenty years earlier.  He says he's at the edge of the universe.)
Due to the number of people absent this week, there was no new instruction.  Continue with last week's assignments.
  • Humorous essay and suspense composition drafts (if necessary).
  • Begin planning for your research report.
    • Choose a subject:  Your subject will need to be an event within living memory, as you will have to conduct an interview as part of your research.
    • Ask yourself questions:  What aspects of your subject interest you personally?
    • Begin brainstorming topics:  The questions you ask yourself are helpful in this process.  Also, remember to brainstorm more topics than you will need just in case you cannot find information about one of your first-choice topics.
    • Begin finding sources:  We will talk about this in more detail next week.
