English I - Honors with Mr. P

where to come for the important stuff and things...

Hey Students!


Here are the clips from the videos that we watched today in class.

President Obama's "Points of Light" speech at Texas A&M: —http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqP7yPd5GX0

Let me know if you have trouble accessing these.

Just a quick reminder, your persuasion test is this Friday, 1/29! We will be finishing up speeches in class tomorrow then briefly reviewing to get you prepared.

Have a fantastic evening!

Mr. P

Howdy All!


Just a few reminders about your persuasive essay:

1. It's due tomorrow, January 26th!

2. Make sure that the ENTIRE PAPER is in 12 pt., Times New Roman font.

3. Go through the "Fix-Its" sheet - in the Box on the right-hand side of this page - get those things out of your paper! Also, if you lost yours or threw it away, print this one out to keep FOREVER.

4. Go through your checklist (2nd to last page of Persuasive Essay packet). This will hopefully prevent you from making some basic errors in your paper.

5. The following is the order in which you need to turn in materials (top to bottom):
- Rubric (last page of Persuasive Essay packet)
- Final Draft (remember to highlight!)
- Any previous draft(s)
- Shaping the Paragraph sheets (if completed)
- Thesis/topic sentence sheet
- Persuasive planning sheet (the one with the long, rectangular boxes)

This needs to be ready to be turned in whenever you make it to my class tomorrow. No excuses!

As always, if you have any questions, email me at cphillips@csisd.org OR post a comment on the blog! That would be neat.

Happy Writing,

Mr. P
