1. We continued from yesterday’s discussion of the imporant aspects of the literary essay and the steps on how to write one with consistent focus and ease.
2. We continued with the topics we had chosen, as an example, and wrote out our topic sentences, constructed a thesis, fill in the other spots on the essay outline sheet handed out and had finished half of our essay by the time this was completed.
3. Monday, there will be a midterm exam and on Tuesday / Wednesday, students will write an in-class exam.
