Wednesday:
- Peer review the final personal essay with at least 1 page of comments (5-6 comments)
- Revise the essays that were peer-reviewed last week
Thursday:
- Check your biographies for the mistake of using other writers' sentences as your own. If I see this in the final draft, you will fail :(
- Peer review the final essays (Jaydn, Noah, Bethany) with about 3/4-1 page each :)
Friday:
- Revise your personal essays and post to the blog by next Friday so I can send the blog out to the whole school!
- Begin work on the How-To rough draft!
- Pick a specific skill that interests you
- For example:
- Instead of "How to Draw," pick "How to draw faces"
- Instead of "How to Babysit," pick "How to make kids love your babysitting" or "How to make your babysitting into a major business!"
- Include:
- Introduction
- Attention-grabber
- Explanation of why this skill is important
- Several steps or categories of learning
- Write a short paragraph for each, full of personality and explanation!
- Conclusion
- Pictures! These can be general pictures from the internet—or pictures of your own knitting/drawings/etc
- Have fun writing this! Make sure you add your personality to your writing and choose a skill that you really like (even if you're not that good at it :D)
