English 10 Homework for tomorrow, Wed. April 7th:

D Block: Please hand in your Revisions before you go to your first block. Thank You!!

B Block can do the same if you choose to.

B Block will come to class before going to the Library for a short survey. 

1. Synthesis Revision Due:  

Whether you are doing a) the Sentence-by-Sentence, and the Body Paragraph, OR b) the Full Rewrite you must underline everything that you change.

The Full Rewrite and the Body Paragraph must be double-spaced. 

The Body Paragraph revision does not require you to stype up the original. Just underline the changes on the new one.

The Sentence-by-Sentence revisions must follow my Handout.

Please look at the following notes and put them in your TKMB notes:

2. Civil Rights Movement - Print this paragraph out and put it in your notes: It began officially when the NAACP was formed in 1909, and continued throughout the 20th century (and is now 106 years old) where many positive and negative things occurred: segregation, lynchings, bombings, the Harlem Renaissance, Rosa Parks' defiance leading to the Bus Boycott in 1955, "Little Rock" and the first African-Americans to enroll in a all-white high school, under armed guard in 1957, Martin Luther King's speech at the Washington Monument in 1963, Lyndon Johnson's signing of the Civil Rights Act in 1965 giving African-Americans full rights under the law, ending segregation, then the assassination of Martin Luther King in 1968,... and the continuing racial divide that still makes life for black Americans much harsher than other groups.
