P&P
- Peer edit four to five other student's intro paragraphs (20-25 min).
- Tell your colleague which intro is better and why, keeping in mind the points below.
- Aspects to consider:
- Is there a narrative arc? Or for those writing descriptive essays, is there a link between the place described and its effect upon the author? Does the description "show" or give the reader a "taste" of the place's qualities that have deeply affected the author?
- Has there been a change; is there a difference (of kind or degree) in character, vision?
- Is there reflection on the author's character development?
- Does the narrative answer the prompt?
- Are there any ROs (Run-Ons), CSs (Comma Splices), or Fs (Fragments)?
- Note any effective, vivid language
- Beowulf - power on through as much as we can, taking notes on the qualities of "the goodly king."
HW: keep working on CWP college prompts
