Ms. Tyre's English 11 Homework for Monday, March 3:

1. "Old Man" Essay: Work carefully on your Essay Outline following the instructions. 

You will hand in both edited Essay Drafts on Monday before you write. Don't forget them.

Alert!! Be sure to look on the back of the Acceptable Outline Example. You may have your "direct references (quotes)" listed on your outline after the bullets for your Conclusion Paragraph.  Be sure that they are the quotes only, not integrated yet, but a just a list of quotes with the citation. You will integrate them into your essay as you write it in class.

ex. "looked more like a huge decrepit hen among the fascinated chickens" (270) 

"dungheap stench that still hung everywhere like a ghost" (273)

Your citations are just the page numbers. Do not use pg. When you have written your sentences with integrated references in them, please put the citation at the end of the sentence and put the period AFTER the citation.

Example of an integrated reference in a sentence in your essay:  The "angel" is described as having "huge buzzard wings, dirty and half-plucked" that are "entangled in the mud"(269).
