Good Morning Musees,
Happy Friday! Please work on your research paper over the break. I am creating a website in my weebly account for resources for you to use over the break for research. Please use them to guide your research. In the account, will be all of the documents from the assignment drive, as well as handouts discussing MLA format, in line citing, paraphrasing and direct quoting, etc.
The website is:
millertimeenglish.weebly.com
Under WFC
Feel free to email me if you have any questions or need guidance over the break. I will be working from home. :)
Your rough draft is due on Thursday, January 2, 2014. Your interview will be due Friday, January 3rd. Please submit the cover sheet as well as your notes from your interview.
Please make sure that you have shared your googledocs document on which you are working so that I may check out your progress or assist you if needed.
My email address is tmiller@smithtown.k12.ny.us
Have a wonderful holiday!
Ms. Miller

Good Morning Musees,
Today is Wisdom Wednesday, December 18th. I will be at a curriculum writing workshop at West tomorrow, so you will have a sub. Please diligently work on your research paper both in and out of class. Everyone should have the following by the end of this week: (Friday evening)
1. A minimum of 20 notecards (but in reality, you should have more than this)
2. Your working thesis statement written, either:
a. in a google docs working document that is shared with me (this can be your working paper), or
b. in the thesis statement section of your dashboard
3. A detailed working outline either:
a. in you Notecard board, or
b. on your working google docs document that is shared with me
4. An introduction paragraph with your working thesis and some kind of hook. Remember, your introduction will generally introduce the focus you will take in your paper.
The above info does not include your works cited in Noodle Tools and your annotations of articles from last week.
Your rough draft is due the day we come back. It must be completed, but will be rough, meaning:
You will have one week to peer edit, self edit, revise your content and transitions, reorganize, refine, insert the correct in-text citation elements, print your work cited, edit for spelling and grammar, etc.
Have a great two days, and I will see you Friday!
