-Your entries should come from the last 1/3 of your book.
-The text excerpts should be spaced out to reveal how the motif is emerging, changing and or taking on new meaning or revealing new themes.
-Do not erase grades on the document.
-Make all suggested changes for a higher score and use comments as advice for the two entries due Friday.
-Do not "resolve" comments I've made to you, instead, "reply" back or ask questions.
-Keep working on the same document in google classroom. Some of you turned it in electronically, so you will have to "unsumbit" to continue working on it.
