Sorry I'm out sick today, gang!
EURO
Today you should have completed your Propaganda posters. I will stamp the RG on Wednesday.

You should have taken the Ch 21 quiz and worked on your packet. If you need/want more time in class we can use tomorrow, or we can just start watching the movie. Up to you guys (depending on how well-behaved you were for the sub, of course). Note that I moved the cube's due-date back until Friday.
EVERYONE
Don't forget that your outside reading summary is due on Thursday at midnight! Because of that, I'll be collecting your notecards on FRIDAY so you can have them to work on your paper Thursday night. The TII folder is now open for anyone who's ready to turn in their paper.
Re: the format, please see the description page. The idea is that there are 5 topics to cover, and you can do it easily in paragraph form, or try to make a paper out of it. Don't try to make a 5 paragraph essay (or 7, in this case). I'm really looking for thoughtfulness in tackling each main point, and that you've integrated qu0tes drawn from throughout the book.
[EDIT] I've put up some examples of how to structure your paper on the description page, so check them out if you're still confused.

So you're just looking for a long like one paragraph full length essay and not 5 numbered ones?
I'm a little confused ]=
Sorry to have been confusing! I'll go over it in class as well.
This is NOT a formal essay, and therefore does not need to follow formal essay structure (TS, CD, etc).
What you DO need to do is thoroughly address each topic (#1-5) and include a quote that supports it. You should be using concrete details and analysis, but you don't need to worry about "three for each paragraph" etc.
You may either just number 1 - 5 and answer them like 5 little mini-essays, or put them together in an essay where you just indent for each new topic, whichever is easiest for you.
Thanks a lot for the example that helps me a lot!
