Hey, everybody!
I am marking your reading logs and just want to reiterate that you need to underline book titles! The other option is to italicize them, if you are typing your logs. Either one is acceptable, but it is not correct to use quotation marks with a book title. Quotation marks are used for short stories, articles in magazines, poems, plays, films -- works that are not full length books.
I would like you to adhere to the structure I showed you on the first day. The idea of a reading log is that you are creating a reading diary. After you read, you write a response to the reading. I don't need you to type it up neatly or do it all at once before I collect it. I am interested in your responses as you read. It can be fun to predict what will happen next, for example, and then find out your prediction was completely wrong!
(This is a page from Leonardo da Vinci's diary, just for fun. Did you know he wrote backwards?)
Do your best to proof-read carefully. Lots of you continue to make mistakes with run-on sentences and sentence fragments.
If you use "one" as a pronoun, the rest of your pronouns need to agree. Here is an example:
One knows that the rules should always be followed and it is in one's best interest to know the rules and obey them at all times.
If you have not yet handed in your logs or your propaganda assignment, you need to do that a.s.a.p. I have to send out report cards on Friday!
Make sure you read The Wars to page 155 (the end of section 3).
