This week we will conclude our in-class conferences and turn in a working draft of the portfolio. I will not collect these, but I will record if you have done them and we will work on them in class. Remember to bring these to class so that you can get feedback from me and your peers.
On Wednesday, in addition to our portfolio drafts, we will also be reading David Foster Wallace's "This is Water." Wallace's short essay will be the basis for our final exam next Wednesday. Make sure to annotate the text. As homework, I want you to annotate the text and record on a separate piece of paper all the claims that Wallace makes and the evidence he uses to support it.
Monday:
Bring in your portfolio essay revisions. We will continue to have in-class conferences.
Wednesday:
David Foster Wallace, "This is Water" PDF
Annotate the text (I will check) and make a list of all the claims that Wallace makes as well as the evidence he uses to support these claims. I will collect this list.
