English 20-1 blocks one and three
Students are to use today as their last day to work on their essay. You will also get an essay self-evaluation sheet to fill out and staple to the back of their essay when you hand it in. This is the last class I am giving you to work on this (Though you'll probably get the weekend to work on it at home). Also, I suggest that you should have a friend or family member that you trust to read it over as a final edit.
