Today's Class and Tonight's Homework 2/2/16

Objective:

Agenda:

1) SRI Test - If you were absent today we will schedule a time to take this, preferably after school.

2.) Forging ahead with our 3 paragraph essay!
      Finish organizing your research into your graphic organizer.  Next, begin writing/typing a working rough draft for class tomorrow.  We will use this rough draft for a peer edit activity.  What does this REALLY mean? 
**You need to make sure you have all three paragraphs on your paper (not looking for "completed" paragraphs)
** I'm looking for your hook/grabber sentence and your thesis in the intro paragraph
**I'm looking for the answers to your research questions (why endangered?, what are we doing to help?)  in the body paragraphs
**I'm looking for a closing/clincher sentence

This is a ROUGH rough draft....which is OK!  The peer edit will help a ton tomorrow!!

A few DO NOTS
*DO NOT hand your graphic organizer to your peer editor tomorrow
*DO NOT hand your cell phone to your peer editor tomorrow to read your draft on googledocs, they can't write on your phone! :)
