Ms. Tyre's English 9 Homework for Monday, March 3:

1. Booktalk: Come with your novel and your Booktalk write-up (following the format of my handouts). You will be sharing your novel with another student, using your write-up and your novel.  The written-notes you will hand in after you have finished.

2. Synthesis Essay: Have this essay finished for Tuesday (March 4).  Word-process in 12 point font, Times New Roman, double-spaced, and indent your paragraphs using the Tab key. Underline the following and nothing else: Thesis in the introduction, Topic Sentences of your Body Paragraphs, Concluding Sentences of your Body Paragraphs, and the Thesis-reworded, the first sentence of your Conclusion paragraph.

Your Introductory Paragraph, and your Setting Paragraph(s) are my exemplars, but if you want to, you could write your own. But it is not mandatory.
