Today in class you read one of your classmate’s analyses and composed a short response of fifty words or more that addressed at least one of these elements of the essay:
- the title
- the introduction
- the thesis
- the textual evidence (the details the writer includes to support his or her claims)
- the conclusion
After you completed your response to your classmate’s blog and posted it as a comment, you submitted your handwritten copy to me and devoted the remainder of the period to your assignment for Lessons Two and Three in the Check, Please! series. If you were absent from class, you can download a copy of the worksheet below and on Blackboard.

Remember that your worksheet is due at the beginning of class on Wednesday, February 16.
