SUBJECT TO CHANGE. Please bear with us as dates of assignments might change due to social distancing.

*All Grammar Review questions will be compiled into a Quiz grade. Please make sure you do them.*

I have attached copies of the Grammar book pages needed at the bottom of the page if you do not have your grammar book. Simply scroll through them.

Week 1:

Wednesday, March 18th, 1:14 pm Live classroom: Check in and going over all the assignments coming up. Fill out the Google form on your topic choice by 3pm TODAY.

Thursday, March 18th, 1:14 pm Live classroom: How to do research and create citations.
--Assignment: Create a google doc for your citations. As you research your topic, create citations from the links or your sources and copy and past them to the doc. Make sure every source has the original link and title, plus your citation. Cite anything you read for your topic, even if you might not use it. Share this document with me by Monday, March 23rd at 1:00 pm. You will need to continue using this doc as we craft our papers, but by Monday I need to see at least three sources on this doc as evidence you have researched. You do not have outside reading this quarter, so the research is counting towards that. The citation page will be considered a paper grade when completed.
Due by Monday, March 23rd at 1:00 pm.

Put the title of the article, the author's name, and the link, then copy and paste the article below. Do these for each of your sources. (If you have an online book or a massive paper as a source, don't worry about doing this for that source.) Then go through the article and using the highlighter tool in Google docs, highlight important details, facts, "evidence," and other things that you think might be helpful for your paper.
***SHARE this document with me.
Due by 2 pm Tuesday.
