Summer Reading Analysis

After you re-read your summer reading assessment, you will determine how you can improve your writing on essays this year--whether you write these essays in class or out of class. Please create a blog post--minimum of two paragraphs--called Summer Reading Analysis. 

To help you with your essay, you can refer to the summer reading essay rubric and the Google Presentation we viewed in class.

Remember that for "Conventions," teachers looked at 3 things:
1. Pronouns - no first- or second-person. So, no "I," "me," "we," or "you"!
2. Verb tense - writing about literature should be in the present tense.
3. Casual language - there should be no contractions, abbreviations, or slang in your essays.


You will be graded as follows:

• 15-20: thoughtful, accurate reflection on steps student should take to improve
• 10-14: thoughtful reflection on steps student should take to improve
• 5-9: attempt to reflect on steps student should take to improve
• 0-4: post is not complete or demonstrates little thought
