EWRT1A-09: see you Wednesday

First, there is no class Monday. So we'll see each other Wednesday.

On Wednesday, grammar review 3 is due.

Also, the first draft of essay 2 is due. Try to have as complete a draft as possible. The more you treat your first draft like a final draft, the more it will help you. Also, keep in mind that the goal with this essay is synthesis. So show what the texts you use have in common. Consider making lists. You could make a list of the obstacles that different essays portray and find commonalities. You could do the same with the effects of those obstacles and the assets people need to overcome those obstacles. Lastly, consider organization. Usually, when one compares two or more texts, one organizes things either subject-by-subject (first one text, then the other), or point-by-point. Consider using a point-by-point organization. We'll talk about this in class more later.
