Writing Groups
Revision Time

Things to watch out for in your essay:

• Do not number or label your paragraphs. 
• You can use the word "I" but see if you can avoid it. Try to find other ways of saying the same thing without using "I."
• No huge quotes. Quote only a few words or a sentence at most. Longer than that and you should be paraphrasing or summarizing. (See post below from Wednesday.)
• Make sure your name, date and period are filled out at the top of your essay.
