English 10 Homework Tonight and Thurs:

1. Please look at yesterday's entry for instructions.  Remember, this is a personal (1st Person) piece of writing where you are reflecting on Global Warming, Pacific Garbage Patch, "Manufactured Landscapes" and readings etc.   It should have an Introduction and Conclusion, and well-developed paragraphs of thoughtful content that is your own original response to the research you have been doing, including the discussions we have had, and the visuals you have seen. You are not writing to tell me what you researched, but to respond, personally, to what you are learning. What do you feel, think, hope, wish, what are the possibilities, what else do you know about all this and what will you do in your future?  These are just ideas.  It is your personal response to all of what we have looked at, to date.

 It is due at the end of your block on Friday. 

Each body paragraph requires a Topic Sentence and a Concluding Sentence. A body paragraph should have one central topic with sufficient discussion of the topic.  Eight sentences approximately.  If it goes to long, simply re-paragraph, making it clear that you are continuing the topic you are on.  

Ask questions in class tomorrow if you need to.
