This Week in Language Arts

This week, we have been continuing our work with research, MLA, and persuasive writing. We’ve covered a variety of topics including finding academic sources, constructing a strong thesis statement, in-text citations and more. We move on to Writer’s Workshop and revision next week.  The choice of paper topic was left to the students. The paper will be due next Friday, the 12th.
