Math Lab to type up your paper. It was turned in today.
You read the following paragraph in class:
I have a really embarrassing story to tell you. I was on a television game show and I was playing for big money. At exactly the wrong moment, my brain froze. I said something really embarrassing, right in front of twenty million Americans (not to mention my fiancé, who was in the studio audience). Though it happened a long time ago, thinking about it today still causes me embarrassment. You then came up with several questions including: What game show was it? What did you say that was embarassing? How long ago was it? What is big money? Is your finacé now your spouse? Why was it the wrong moment? Etc. You completed a "Question Storm" in which you read through each other's papers and ask any question you had about their content. You didn't focus on form or grammar. I also met with some of you one on one about your papers. The first half of class was spent in the writing lab, finishing up your papers. I started meeting with you one-on-one to discuss your writing process and the work you have done thus far.
We talked about Intro and Conclusion.
The NEVER NEVER NEVER's:
You then drafted your intro and your conclusion in class. We spent some time in the writing lab drafting the main body of your argumentative paper.
