Hello!

Just a short note.

I am reading and grading your out of class essay #3. It appears that many of you did not read the prompt correctly.

The main essay prompt, worth 75 points, asks you to select a few characteristics (in class, we discussed that characteristics is plural, which means at least two characteristics) AND for each of those characteristics, you were to provide at least three very specific supports.

I am just noting this in the blog so I do not have to keep writing this note on several of your papers. :)

See below:


Essay Prompt
SELECT A ‘CHARACTER’ FROM THE MEMOIR, THE UNWANTED. IN YOUR OPINION, WHAT CHARACTERISTICS ACCURATELY DESCRIBE THIS PERSON? FOR EVERY ASSERTION YOU MAKE ABOUT THIS PERSON, YOU MUST SUPPORT IT WITH AT LEAST THREE VERY SPECIFIC SUPPORTS FROM THE BOOK. THIS RESPONSE WILL BE EVALUATED ON YOUR ABILITY TO MAKE AN ASSERTION AND SUPPORT IT LOGICALLY AND ARTICULATELY. (75 POINTS)
