Today students worked on their Red Scarf Girl essays.
The audience for the essays has read the Red Scarf Girl and the "Communist Manifesto." They are educated, American adults, not necessarily LDS. It may have been a while since they studied the "Communist Manifesto," so you will want to give some brief background in your introduction.
This essay will certainly require more than 5 paragraphs.

No Bellwrite
Students worked with their partners to 4 R the Korean War using questions from yesterday's class. By the end of class, they turned in a paper with the following:
1) 2 Questions and Answers (each answer should be 1-2 paragraphs)
2) 1 Principle reasoned from their studies (with 1 paragraph exploring how the principle applies personally to students)
We also did a review of semicolon and colon conventions (rules). We had a handout with sample sentences. Students are working to identify which semicolons and colons are used appropriately.
Semicolons: independent clause; independent clause.
Colons: independent clause: _____________________. (word, phrase, clause, or list)
Homework:
- Red Scarf Girl essays due Thursday
- Memorization (Jacob 5, part 3) due Thursday
