Check out this link: http://www.wikihow.com/Write-an-Essay, how similiar or different is to what we have done in our class when we do our essays?
nicolas P. - The things that are the same is that we all wrote our body paragraphs then wrote the other two, and the differents are we didn't really plan it out all we did was write the paragraphs and the made a good copy after profreading it. (Nov 20, 2009)
Tanner o. - (Nov 20, 2009)
Mr. Spadafora - Actually we did pplan it out. Remember, you had specific things you had to write about in each paragraph. That is planning, when you know what you are writing about before you write it! (Nov 20, 2009)
Keisha H. - we did thst t-chart with the ideas of our topic (Nov 20, 2009)
Mr. Spadafora - good point keisha (Nov 20, 2009)
nick c. - this is verv similar to what we do in class (Nov 20, 2009)
mikhaila c. - This website just went into more detail of what you told us about writtin essays. (Nov 20, 2009)
Mr. Spadafora - thanks Mikhaila! (Nov 20, 2009)
Tanner o. - it explains alot of the things that you said for us to do in our essay like dont use the statement "I think that" or "I think this" it also esplains the different ways we can brainstorm our ideas and facts. This explains the propers ways to write a thesis statement and we worked alot on how to write a good opening paragraph. It also explains also how to write proper transitions between sentences that i have never really worked on or thought about very much. I think that that information gave me many ideas on how to write my future essays. Tanner (Nov 20, 2009)
Keisha H. - like makhaila siad that the web site explains it in more detail (Nov 20, 2009)

cori r. - One thing that is similiar from this and the essays we all wrote in class is that we all planned it out first .One difference is that we didn't creat a title page for our essay. (Nov 20, 2009)
