English 12: May 7-11, 2012

Hello Seniors!
Our time together is all but finished. I'll be sad to see you go.

Last Thursday, I had a family emergency and could not be at school. I asked you to view the video on Coleridge's Rime of the Ancient Mariner. I heard from a few of you that it left you confused, so we will be discussing the text in the few days remaining. But we also have another significant task. Your RESEARCH PAPER is due, and this paper counts not only for grades during the nine weeks, but also for your FINAL EXAM.

Since we did not get to do our peer editing on Thursday as planned, we will do it on MONDAY. There will be no excuses for not having a rough draft. This activity counts as a 100 point quiz grade.

Your FINAL draft is due MAY 8th at the beginning of class. I know this gives you only one day for revisions, but if your rough draft is nearly complete, that should be enough time to make minor changes.  DO NOT FAIL to turn in your papers! They will count 10% of your yearly grade as your exam and be included incrementally in your 9 weeks grade, so this assignment is no trivial matter.

See you in class!

Mrs. SO
