TUESDAY

First, what happened on Monday: time to work on introduction and conclusion of essay. Monday night's homework: work on first draft. Tuesday, continue work on first draft.

Today in Class
Looked at options for embedding quotations. Do NOT use "stranded" ("orphan")quotes. That's the term for simply plunking down quoted material on the page, without introduction. In your draft, do your best to apply what we discussed today.

Tomorrow as I stamp the shaping sheet the sub initialed on Monday, I'll look at your sample embedded quote from class today or at ONE quotation from your draft to see how you're doing.

I have extended the deadline for the first draft until Thursday, Nov. 16, because since I wasn't here Monday I couldn't discuss embedding the quotes, and you might have some significant work to do in that regard. If you worked as you should have Monday night, you can go back over that material and adjust quotes as needed. The completed typed draft is due on Thursday without fail or excuse.

Be sure to double-check all quotations on your shaping sheet. I need to collect your books on Wednesday; I will keep several copies in class for you to consult if necessary, and there is an e-text of Macbeth as well.

Homework
Complete the writing of at least half of your essay. Remember that the draft you bring on Thursday must be properly formatted (heading, running header, title, citations, etc.)
