Tonight's H.W.

  Today in class we looked at some different tactics on writing a proper introduction for an essay.  Here is a link to the notes from class. The Rough Draft for your essay is due Friday before we leave for February Vacation.  When you are working on your homework you need to have your Writing in History Shouldn't Be a Mystery handout with you.  Use the pages that offer advice on writing a thesis as well as working on your claims and evidence. For tonight I want you to choose to do one of the following:

   1. Look over Body Paragraph One with Mr. Chute's Checklist and make any needed corrections.    Then work on Body Paragraph Two.

  2.  After looking over Body Paragraph One, write your Introduction Paragraph for the essay.
