Index Cards Mania

I think I speak for both me and Mr. Hannah when I say for the people who stepped up and read aloud their paragraphs, we were incredibly impressed. We can finally, FINALLY, begin to see the improvements in your writing. All of you have gotten increidbly more specific with your language and more creative. Thank you for being so vulnerable and opening yourself up to the class. It was very admirable.

As for the research paper, I unfortunately can't say the same. We can do better! Like I stressed in class, if you do one homework assignment, please let this be the one. Get your index cards done! Here is what it should look like:

Source A

“Your data is shared more widely than you may wish. Even if you have restricted your information to be seen by friends only, a friend who is using a Facebook app could allow your data to be transferred to a third party without your knowledge,” (Golijan).

 

                                                                                                           S.C.

 

Put the source letter on the top left-hand corner. Then put it in the quote. Put the author's last name in paranthesis at the end of the quote. Then, put your initials on the bottom right-hand corner of the index card. Please do all of this on the blank side of the index card. We'll be using the lined side tomorrow in class.

 

Also, for Monday, you must read all of Chapter 1 of Night. That is up to page 22. You may use DEAR time tomorrow to get a jump start on it. Like I mentioned in class before, this is more of an emotional and mental read. We will not be annotating as intensely as we have with the past books. The focus of this book is to notice the themes Elie present before us and how those themes affect us today in our modern lives.

 

Happy reading and get your index cards done!
