Starter: Take the Yearbook Survey! Seriously, do this stuff. Lest they let me loose on AI generators to create uncanny senior/baby photos for you. In Text Citation Review We’re getting into the nitty and the gritty details of writing a research paper. Unfortunately, that includes MLA in text citations. Take a look at the handout and use the find and replace function (command+F or control+F) to find “(“ open brackets (Shift+9). This should show you any of the citations you made already and allow you to double check them. If you haven’t made these citations yet, use the same function to find “ quotation marks (Shift+’). This won’t find paraphrasing but it will find direct quotes, which is better than nothing. Not citing your sources is plagiarism. Transition Quick Review Quickly review strategies for transitions:
Transitions Practice Individually Finally, you’re going to take some of your own writing and transition it properly. SHOW LORI once you do this. This sheet should look eerily familiar if you can remember last semester (however long ago that may or may not have been). Once you complete this, it’s time to get back to the grind.

Analysis Framework Assignment People tend to struggle with analysis- let’s practice with a framework that will help you. This sheet has a framework, an example, and a place for you to practice with your own writing. Before you move into writing time, take a hard look at some section of your part 3 and use this framework to improve your writing. SHOW ME to move out of the classroom and into writing time. Writing Goals: By the time you come back to school next week (assuming tomorrow is, indeed, a snow day…)

Starter Felicia: Dig back into your outline and find 2 quotes you need to bring into your paper. If you did the outline correctly, this should be as simple as glancing down the list and picking any entry.
Setting up Quotes + Signal Phrases Take a gander at this handout to be able to set up yer quotes. You need evidence, and being able to introduce it properly is going to be essential. Branch out, try to challenge yourself to set up quotes in a variety of ways. Work Priorities: by Tuesday at start of class I will have done:

Starter Bob: Paraphrasing Think back to a time when someone was telling you an important story or essential bit of information
Paraphrasing Framework Review this framework with students- they should take notes! Paraphrasing Activity with Cats We’re going to practice the difference between paraphrasing and quoting today with an article about stray cats in Hawaii. Follow the directions given and on this sheet and we’ll make it out just fine and be off to writing in no time. The Task for Today WRITE WRITE WRITE.

Starter Wombat An elevator pitch is a 30 second up to one minute description of your idea designed to be complete enough so that when the elevator doors open and the executive that you’ve been scaring flees for safety, they have a complete idea of what you were pitching them, so they can go and present it as their own.
Outline Critiques We are going to be following this protocol, which should seem a bit weird compared to what we’ve done previously for critiques. Instead of relying on your peer’s critiques, you’re going to be reliant on your perceptions. Strange I know, it will make sense once you get started.
Outlines are due Tonight at MIDNIGHT

Starter: Think about the best endings you have ever seen, heard, read, played, or any other consumption method.
Outline Dissection Part 4 Complete this before moving on to your outline. Today is the last day in class to work on your outline uninterrupted. Take this time to get it ready to present because tomorrow we’re running a critique protocol, so have something ready by tomorrow, even if the sections are a little rough! Outline Rubric Check this out- none of this should be a surprise, but this is how we will be grading your outlines. Work Priorities: by Wednesday at start of class I will have done:
