GRAB YOUR CHROMEBOOKS ... Then go to the link below to review the instructions for your Semester 1 Essay.

College Prep - Fall Semester Essay


We will draft and submit the essay online - so you will have access to your work from any computer, smartphone, etc. with internet access.  You will have today, tomorrow, and Monday in class to work on this assignment - it is due NO LATER THAN 12/19 (Friday).

Do your research and planning today.

Rough draft in class tomorrow.

Revisions and final drafts in class Monday.

Any additional time you need will be outside of class - though you may come in during tutorial times next week to work on the Chromebooks in the classroom.  This essay is a major grade for this class - but is also a non-negotiable part of the College of the Mainland curriculum.  You cannot receive credit for this class if you do not complete the essay.

It will need to be at least 3 pages in length (600+ words) and you will need to include information from 3-4 outside sources.  The instruction page suggests chapters in the Real Writing book that will be helpful to you in this process.  Be sure to use that resource as well.

And on to the Renaissance and Shakespeare and Macbeth.

Click through to the webquest below and follow all instructions.  We will have a quiz over the material on Monday.

Macbeth Webquest

Those of you needing to make up a quiz or exam need to find a time next week to be here during Indian Hour to take care of it.

The item in #6 (The Macbeth Curse) has a broken link - if you Google Macbeth Curse, you'll find all of the information you will need.
