Over the long weekend! Remember to scroll down for challenge assignments!

Finish Persepolis for Tuesday/Wednesday with 25 notes on strong images (what do they show or say that the text doesn't? how do they contribute to your understanding of emotions and events depicted in the book?) Also take notes on Marji's experience of Innocence and Faith.

Our Socratic Seminar for Persepolis will be Tuesday and Wednesday. Come prepared to share your insights and get your notes checked for completion!

Final Drafts of your research papers are due Thursday/Friday.  I am granting you a slight extension because  I think your papers will be stronger for it.

Period 6: Your Rough Drafts are due on Friday for peer-editing. Please, please, please don't skip steps. You must have: 

1. Read 5-7 articles and taken citations and notes for each. These can be recorded in google docs, a notebook, or in the margins of papers you have printed out.
2. You must have at least 15 notecards (5 for each source) including a citation card (MLA formatting), at least two direct quotes (worded so well you just have to use them), and at least one paraphrase card in which you are writing down facts or statistics or general information (in your own words), and finally, a ME card writing down your thoughts on the topic and how the information will help you write your paper--how will you use it? What does it show?
3. A typed, complete and thorough outline (remember you can change the word "debate" or "claim" to idea or topic) before beginning your rough draft. 

Final Drafts for 6th period will be due the following Monday (the first of June).
