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.
