Homework 12/16/10

Period 1
Make an outline for your in class essay. You will turn this in tomorrow.
The rough draft is optional, but the outline you have to turn in. Remember to use the logic that you used this morning to figure out how you will organize your thoughts and the data from the stories.
Materials that you are allowed to use are:
a.) Your stories packets (so be sure to have those also. You may underline or highlight your packet to have your quotes ready)
b.) Your Creation Stories Packet

Remember that you only have 35-40 minutes to work on it.
Don't get too overly confident.

DON'T BE THE SOURCE OF MY SMACK-TALKING. PREPARE!!!!!
