Good morning! Today we’ll build on the work from Monday to think about, read about, talk about and start composing effective introductions and (if time) conclusions.

To do this, we’ll build on our prior work (your blog posts and discussions of course but also your work with the Essay 3 Prep Activity) by looking at a section from one of my favorite (and also free) writing textbooks, Amy Guptil’s Writing in College. It’s linked to on our Goals & Plans Doc. The section we’ll look at is “Chapter 7: Intros and Outros“.

As a reminder, your peer edit session of Essay 3 is on Monday, November 22. Please place your full draft in your assigned Google Doc by the start of class on that day. Graded revisions will be due November 29.
