Tonight I'd like you to do some review exercises on some grammar points we have covered....
1. Adjective Clauses - p. 190-192
2. Comparisons - p. 184
A good way to show connections between ideas are to use transition signals. Beware, because each signal words has its own function and they must reflect a certain meaning. Try to integrate some of these signals into your writing to make better connections.
3. Transition Signals - p. 394-397

4. Peer Review - rewrite 1 main idea ( this means one body paragraph of your essay) based on the feedback from your peer reviewer. I will evaluate your essay based on the corrections you have made in your second draft.
5. Article: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/aug/09/australia
** Make sure to include your brainstorming, plan and 1st and 2nd draft.
