HW from 1/19/12

Due on 1/24/12:

These are the first assignments of the new quarter/semester! You have a fresh slate with no grades yet! This is your chance to proceed with renewed determination to work hard and succeed. Don't waste it!

* Send me an email identifying and explaining the example of figurative language in the italicized sentences above.

* Read your (approved) book for pleasure 30 minutes daily. Write it on your Reading Log!

* Correctly format your mystery story as follows:

+ Create a header that will put your name and the title of your story on the right top corner of each page. Do not skip any lines in this header.

+ Create a footer that will automatically number your pages in the center of the bottom of each page. Do not skip any lines in the footer.

+ Be sure your paper is in a word processing program and that it is double-spaced, with one-inch margins, using 12-point Times New Roman font. Do not have any sections of your paper written any larger or smaller than 12-point font.

+ On the blank line between scenarios, put three dashes, like this: ---

* Address all editing suggestions and make all corrections from graded copy (returned to you Thursday).

* Continue in your mystery story, correctly alternating scenarios, until you have at least four full typed pages (as correctly formatted, according to above criteria). I don't mean four MORE pages, just a total of at least four pages from where you started after Cathy's scenario. I also don't mean you need to finish the story. Just continue until you have at least four total pages.

* Email the (at least) four pages to me as an attachment.

* If you receive a return email from me indicating I printed your paper, you don't need to bring a printed copy to class. If you do NOT receive an email from me, you must print your paper and bring it to class. These four pages will constitute your D1 (draft 1) grade, and they are due by Tuesday.

* Finish memorizing your third Scripture memory verse (either Titus 2:11-14 or Ephesians 4:29-32). You must be prepared to recite it any time beginning on Tuesday.
