Your work this week is to make your Kite Runner essay beautiful and impressive. This will be done in a few ways:
1. Read your essay aloud. Yes, I mean it. Listen to the essay for wordiness, fragments or general nonsense. Tweak as necessary.
2. Ask your writing partner questions, so you can get feedback on specific areas.
3. Look at the checklist and rubric I gave you and make sure you have addressed most of the points on it.
4. Make sure each body paragraph has an analytical point AND that point is supported by direct evidence.
5. If you have a question about your essay, email me in First Class and I'll look at a paragraph or two and give you feedback. I am happy to do so.
This revision is due Monday, November 18th. See details on assignment sheet or last week's post.
