A writer only begins a book. A reader finishes it.” - Samuel Johnson AGENDA -Bellwork—Paper Self Review -Peer Review -Revising Time -HW: Finish Paper; bring college essay topics to class Self analyze TTTC essay for theme, thesis, content, conventions and correct MLA citations. Identify strong areas and areas needing help. Peer Review TTTC essay for theme, thesis, content, conventions and correct MLA citations. Identify strong areas and areas needing help. A writer only begins a book. A reader finishes it.” - Samuel Johnson 2 Nov. 2012

Bellwork—Self Review 11/2/12 Read through your essay one time. Count the number of direct quotes you used and write that number on top of your essay. On the last page of your essay, write what you were trying to say with this essay. One direct statement of purpose is all you need. (this should sound somewhat like your thesis) On the last page, write specific things you want help with. On the White sheet, complete the whole column for “Author’s Comments” Comment on each of the rows Use language from the descriptions If appropriate, mention particular parts from your essay On the side of the white page, write at least one specific question for your editors

Peer Review and Revising Re+vision—Revision means to see again with new eyes Peer Review Writer’s Job Clarify areas where you WANT/NEED help. Reviewer’s job Most important—Answer the writer’s questions Make sure the paper fits the assignment criteria Be Constructive/TACTFUL—I was confused…, Could you add an example to this part…, quote doesn’t match the topic of paragraph; could you clarify how the CD fits the theme, etc.…

Peer editing Trade papers and white sheets. Read the question the author wrote on the bottom of the page, and read what they say their purpose is on the last page of their essay Write your name in the “Editor’s Comments” column Read their paper through once, writing all over their essay (don’t fill in the white sheet yet) Ask questions at parts you don’t understand Write suggestions for improvement Identify parts you like or think are strong Identify (and fix?) areas with incorrect spelling, grammar, or formatting Tell them whether or not they achieved their purpose as stated on the last page of their essay Go back to the white sheet. Using specific language from the descriptions, give them feedback in each category. Skim over their essay as you need to in order to cite specific areas in your comments. Answer their question at the bottom of the page.

Reflection On the back of your purple sheet, consider the following and write your responses down: Did your editor think you achieved your purpose? Why or why not? What are you going to do to improve your weaker areas? What, if anything, do you think you still need help on? What questions do you have before you turn this in on Monday?
