03.18 - Public Figure Project Section 2 Notecards

We started class today with the unit 2 roots and prefixes quiz. We spent some time going over how to respond to the questions since this quiz used a different format than previous quizzes. After everyone had an opportunity to take the quiz, we corrected quizzes together and discussed the correct answers.

Next, we reviewed the section 2 requirements for our public figure project (see below) and then everyone had the remaining time to continue working on their notecards for this section of the paper. Notecards should be finished before or during class tomorrow so that the outline can be completed for class on Thursday. This will enable everyone to begin writing the initial draft of their paper on Thursday. Section 2 drafts should be submitted for grading via Google Drive by 2 p.m. on Friday.
