Thursday, February 26th | Drafting

What do I need to know in order to write?
How will I represent my thoughts and research in academic writing?
Who am I as a writer?

DO NOW: Organize ALL materials, intentions, and tabs for today.

CHECK IN: Word Wave - What is a verb (or verb phrase) that describes what you need to complete today. (Examples:  manage opinions)

STUDIO: In order to meet a March 13th deadline for the research paper, drafting should begin today, whether it is by starting with an introduction to host your thesis, claim/evidence/explanation paragraph outlines, or conceptualizing your argument. The need for more research to support the emerging purpose of your paper and paragraphs may arise and it should continue. Update your annotated bibliographies as you go.

Write your response to these questions prior to diving in to thinking and writing today:

  • What are the details of your intention for today?
  • What steps will you take?
  • What evidence will you have?
  • What habit of learning will be most needed?
TICKET OUT: Reflect on progress and share out evidence.
