AP Language Class Notes
Objective(s): APELC students 1) reviewed timed-writing revision procedures and expectations, and 2) generated ideas for writing.
Juniors and seniors, after some discussion of the need for classroom donations, we reviewed revision procedures, again. It is absolutely vital that you are clear that revisions:
- Will not be accepted unless we’ve conferenced;
- Must be typed in accordance with the latest approved MLA format;
- Must be accompanied by well-thought, typed cover sheets (Focused writing grade);
- Contain no more than three (3) conventions errors, .
- Will not be accepted after tutoring this Thursday.
I can’t stress enough the importance of following these criteria. Be sure to carefully edit your revision, have a friend edit your revision, the then re-edit your revision. This is make or break time. If you can’t follow these instructions while also completing a quality revision, you may have to reconsider whether this is the class for you. I don’t want to appear callous, but I want to be clear. Most of all I want you to succeed at producing the best, most beautiful work you’re capable of producing.
If you’re still anxious about your revision, I recommend you take a look at Kala S.’s conference notes on the student board. I made a copy of and posted them because they’re clear and simple and good. If you’re interested in chunking and are still curious about the best way to organize your essay and talk about logos, ethos, pathos, and action, we’ll review example approaches over the next couple of days.
Have fun with your homework (it’s posted Quinn.) We’ll look to style over the next couple of days in addition to arrangement.
