Semester 2 Papers

****The week long English Writing Exam will be held the week of March 31st-April 4th. This is worth 10% of the Second Semester Grade.

1. A resume will be started in Homeroom and be due in class. Details will be posted here after I find out information from the counselors as to the day of the homeroom "training".

Resume training begins March 27th. All resumes are due by April 14th. BONUS of 10% if you turn in your resume the school week after your homeroom training!

2. A research based expository paper - will be worked on in March. Details will be posted here at the end of February. Each Tuesday in March we will have library time to research, work on drafts, get peer editing tips from peers, and get feedback from me. The more time is used wisely, the less that will have to be done at home. The Expository Paper will be due, uploaded to turnitin.com by Sunday March 30, 2104 (11:59 PM).

The Writing Exam will start Friday April 11th and continue through Holy Week. It is an in-class assessment of writing. The passage will be read at home. This is 10% of the course grade for this semester.
