This weekend, think about what you can do to improve the quality of your introductory paragraphs and the process you go through during prewriting. Compose a revised indroductory paragraph that includes an engaging beginning, a main idea/thesis statement, and a brief mention of your three main points. Next week, we will discuss the rest of the paper further and you will have the nice, long Thanksgiving break to revise your papers. You must revise your papers to receive a higher grade.

Also, if you had any work to make up for me, turn it in ASAP. You will only have a couple of class periods to take advantage of this offer.
