A) Read “Anxiety” (p 94-98)
B) Complete writing activity #1 on page 88.
- Title - be creative and have it connect to your topic
- subject - this does not need to be a huge life-altering event - think small; think about family stories; think about memories (those that stick with you have importance)
- Thesis - Helen Keller’s thesis was her first sentence and her intro paragraph was only 3 sentences long. Collier placed his thesis at the end and had it be a cumuluating thought.
- Body Paragraphs - Show, don’t tell. Think about your diction and tone. Look at how you or the subject was before and after this particular day. What changes occurred?
- Re-read the 3 essays and look to see how they structured them. They are all precise, clear and unified.
- This is to be either handwritten or typed as it will be handed in.
