Block Day, February 16th-17th

The big day.

We spent the first 45 minutes of class doing the timed writing. I narrowed the field from 5 to 3 and then students picked the one they thought they could best tackle (their group's poem excluded). We stopped after 15 minutes to check our progress and evaluate our thesis. (NOTE: sometimes when writing, you figure your way to a better train of thought - that can work out fine if you go back and adjust your opening paragraph. Go with the good idea. Content is King!)

We then spent the rest of class evaluating our three TW's and deciding which one to submit for a major grade.
