Peer Reviews of College Application/Scholarship Essays
Writing Spotlights
1. Sentence lengths
2. Avoiding cliches
Revision Reflection in your Writer's Notebook
HOMEWORK:
1. Read and highlight/annotate Trimble's Writing with Style advice about Semicolons, Dashes, and Colons--quiz next time.
2. Revise your essays. Be sure to start each essay by stating the question or prompt you're answering or responding to!
3. Staple together (oldest on the bottom/newest on the top) first draft, peer review drafts, and final draft.
Secret word: colon (If you see this word, write it on a piece of paper with your name and give it to me for an extra credit point.)
