Give Ms. Batten your academy name. (1st, 2nd, 3rd block only)
Reminder from Ms. Batten/READ:
The last class you were supposed to turn in your group FCAT packet, with all of your names, and with a key (see board). You were supposed to use your group key to mark the different parts of the FCAT essay standard, such as engaging the reader, the thesis, etc. Your group key should be recorded on your packet somewhere. Groups should have marked the 2 through the 6 essays. Packets returned today in class.
Then, you were supposed to take your individual essay, W5-Expository, and come up with another key. It can be the same one you used with your group or your own. Using the key, you were supposed to mark your essay and turn it into the basket. Essays returned today in class to add on new part.
NEW:
Now, you will take W5-Expository, the essay you wrote about someone you would like to spend the day with, which you've already marked using your key which you've also recorded somewhere on your essay, you will now comment on your essay in the following areas: Focus, Organization, Support, Conventions. Then give your paper a score on the 6 point scale. Turn essay back in. Directions also on board.
*If you receive the W4-American Idol assignment back, fix it according to the following directions and turn back in. Directions also on board.
- After you've scored and commented in each of the four areas, in the margin write: right score or real score and record the score given to you as the actual score the audition should receive. Put a check next to your score if it matches the real/right score. If it doesn't match, in the margin, write a note why the right/real score is more accurate than your score.
