In-class work: Week of September 14, 2009

This week we will be completing our baseline writing pieces. We will also do a comparative study of two poems: "I hear America singing" by Walt Whitman, and "I, Too" by Langston Hughes. Lessons will surround annotation and how to "dig" into a poem. We will also discuss how to develop a strong thesis statement and use textual support in our writing. Looking ahead: a 2-page essay comparing the two poems.

  1. From today's college search in the library, I learned that there are colleges that accept a lower point average, so there aren't only colleges with a 98 average needed.Also, I learned, that there are many colleges offering majors in psycology in New York.That made me happy!
