SENIORS: It is now time to put together your ideas, your text, and your illustrations to create your book!  Think about the size of your book (whose hands will be turning the pages?), are you REALLY going to do the drawings or find them on the internet?  Out of what will you make your book--construction paper? Computer paper?  Power point?

SOPHOMORES: In your notebook, under the title Synthesis Notes, we wrote about the things we would expect to see in a synthesis paper; things like concrete details, explanations of how and why your sources connect and support your thesis, and fully developed points (i.e., examples take 3-4 sentences, while commentary and explanation take 2-5 sentences).  We then got into groups of 3 and analyzed some student writing, looking for the above.
