Today – Students will complete bell work #20 before we discuss the guide sheet used to evaluate TWA #2.  They will also complete an exercise to help identify the key details included in TWA #2 draft brought to class today.

Students are expected to arrive in the library tomorrow with a copy ready to type, not to fix and rewrite.  Any editing and revisions should happen before arriving.  Students may bring the paper electronically, open it, and then print once totally sure it is ready.

See the slides below for what guided our discussion today.

Beginning of a Sample TWA #2

Vanished Into Thin Air or Did He?

Robert disappeared without a trace.  Yesterday, a  simple man,

Robert, greeted his wife in the kitchen and explained he will

disappear but will return five minutes later.  His wife, fixing his

dinner, continued her duties but later grew more concerned as he

now definitely evaded her company longer than five minutes.  The

authorities arrived on the scene to investigate but find no evidence

of any crime, so she is left to await his return.
