Today we corrected the mastery review for our punctuation unit.
In class, and if you are not finished, at home this evening, you must finish the quotation marks worksheet.
Tomorrow, you must also have two typed versions of your outline in class. You will be starting to write your rough draft tomorrow in class! If you don't have your outline, you will receive a zero for it and you will not be able to start your paper! It is VITAL that you have it tomorrow!
