Class today: September 27th

1. With your two Boot Camp topics, you have completed Step 7 of Writing (Writing rough draft integrating source material).  You will switch the two bodies of writing with a partner. They will be proofing each body thoroughly.

Coding System:
1. Underline the thesis/claim
2. Count the three major supporting points 1, 2, 3
3. Mark I for the introduction (contextualizing, attributing to author) on quotes
4. Mark C for proper citation of the quote (parentheses... author last name if not mentioned before... page number... period AFTER the parentheses)
5. Mark E for proper and effective WARRANTS.
5. Mark A, B for each example given under their main supporting points. Do this for each supporting point.
6. Mark I, II, III, IV for the TYPES of quote embedding.
             I: Colon           (Intro complete sentence : Quote)
            II: Tag line (active verb.. not said... proper punctuation)
            III: Source in the middle of the quote (with proper punctuation)
            IV: Grammatically integrated into own sentence (sentence has subject/verb... no run on)

2. When you are done, return the writing. You will visually see what you have.. and don't have. Please read through your writing, when you are done, at the bottom of each section, please write a concluding sentence. This sentence needs to SYNTHESIZE your argument. This means that you emphasize the significance of the argument, or you reiterate what the reader should understand about you argument that you present.

3. Please take notes over the following links for Wednesday/Thursday:
 Introduction to Transitions

4. You will be having a quiz over Steps 1-7 of Writing September 28th/29th in class.
