The Uses and Abuses of Rhetoric
Journal Entry #3

The Week in Review: 9/5-9/16

Assignments, Projects & Classwork: 9/5-9/16

Welcome to your weekly "Week in Review." This should be the first and last place to go to when wondering what is due and when it is due--so get used to it. It is also the place that posts updates to assignments, and updates are usually good for you--meaning, I probably got rid of an assignment or shortened an assignment. I will never add another assignment or lengthen one.

Read this. Post a thoughtful comment that somehow shows you have read the "Week in Review." 

The assignments are in the extended entry!

Thursday:  

  1. Summer Portfolio: Format your summer writing work in a Pages doc, titled Last Name Summer Writing Portfolio.
  2. Read & Comment on my “Welcome” essay posted on my blog: https://www.thefennvoice.org/english9/ Your comment should focus on figuring out what I am writing about.
