As i walk into my favorite class of the day i grab the paper on the table and go to my seat the bell rings and mr. becker starts to teach as he talks about the dreadful paper of doom and how we have to write 3 to 5 pages on C/C and how im thinking to myself that its going to be hard but i know with mr. beckers help it will be very good. as we get done talking about the paper he gives us some time to think about which cultures we will choice for our paper. As i get into the paper and start getting everything together and hopeing it will be good the class comes to a sudden stop and the bell rings.
ReplyDeleteWe start out the day with scott reading his scribe notes to the class. Then Mr.Becker gave us tools and steps to begin our comparison matrices paper. Then we discussed Becker's favor over upperclassmen. And of course Felix adds "you just like us grownups." Ha! Yeah right! Just kidding.. :) Mr.Becker then goes on explaining the tools to construct a good introduction, hook, thesis, body, and conclusion. He uses an example from the Lord of the Flies. Oh how I disliked that book. He then uses the side bored to explain what to watch out for in the topic outline. Then he tells us the options for organizing your C/C essay worksheet. Then he says something thesis blah blah blah. Finally, he sets us free! 20 more minutes of 6th hour mythology and all you can hear are pages flipping, papers moving, and people whispering. All this time to work is great!... except I was too focused on writing these scribe notes so I had no clue what we were actually supposed to be doing.
