Week+1+-+Nov.+14+-+18+-+Instructions

When I last saw you, we were about to write compare/contrast essays in class, before the flooding hit.

**2. STUDY:** Our next chapter is about paraphrasing and summarizing. Both are techniques for rewriting something, often when doing research and using other people's ideas. Read the chapter and do the practice exercises.  **3. READ: **My summary lecture notes.
 * 1. ASSIGNMENT **: As per the notes we looked at in class here: @http://bit.ly/cT66rF please complete your compare/contrast essay and e-mail it to me no later than **NOON, Friday, Nov. 18. **

I will e-mail everyone again Friday with a paraphrasing/summarizing assignment/homework.

Given the circumstances, I want all of you to know that I have a lot of free time right now, and I am here to help you. SO DON'T BE SHY!

In addition to my e-mail, please feel free to call me at 0879791634, or I'm happy to discuss the material "directly" with you by Skype. My Skype nym is "toddruiz" I know, a very creative name for me.

To summarize: Read the chapter, do the exercises, turn in compare/contrast essay by Friday, noon.

I miss you guys and wish we could meet as normal, but we have to make the best of a bad situation.

Warm regards,

Todd
