English 10 Homework for Thursday/Friday:

1. Work on your ideas for tomorrow and Friday's essay.  The prompt "People's  understanding of the world changes over time," will be written over the next two days.  This is an essay that can be in the first person because you are a part of it.  Therefore I expect the pronouns "me" and "I" and "mine" etc. You will have personal and other examples in your essay.

Try not to be colloquial. It reduces the effect of your writing.  If you use it, you must have a purpose for using it. ie, quoting something you or someone said.

 You will have no notes with you tomorrow and Friday. So do your thinking and organization at home.  Please remember not to use colloquial language of the words like "mom and dad": and no "you."

This is a 4 to 5 paragraph essay.

Work on this tonight so you are ready tomorrow.
