Wednesday: Revising
Show me your essay! If you don’t have one:
Work on it during class (you will lose out on your participation points).
For ½ credit for the revision activity, find someone
outside of class
to revise your essay.
What is “revising” and how is it different than “editing?”
Tips:
Have a SOLID/strong thesis.
Have a solid topic sentence for each body paragraph.
EXPLAIN yourself as clearly & concisely as possible. Don’t be repetitive, and try to avoid unnecessary words, but make sure you explain each point and example (pretend your readers have NO idea).Slide8
Wednesday: Revising
What’s a strong thesis?
A is B because of X, Y, & Z
What’s a good topic sentence?
First, A is B because of X.
Example of clear support? Read sample essay.Slide9
Wednesday: Revising
Switch papers and peer revisers:
Put a smiley face
next to a STRONG thesis and a good hood, a
frowny
face next to a weak thesis or a boring/confusing hook, or a question mark in the intro paragraph if you can’t find them.
Underline each topic sentence and put a plus sign
(+)
if its a good one or a minus sign
(-)
if its weak.
Number each NEW supporting detail for each paragraph.
Put brackets
[ ]
around sentences that are unclear or sound “weird.”
In the margins, make
suggestions
for additions or ask
questions (at LEAST one idea/question per body paragraph).
Write two comments on the back: one comment about what you liked about the paper, and one thing they should work on.
Sign your name.

Hot Seat
Designated “hot seat” in front of the room.
2
minutes to ask the seated person any question in a rapid-fire
succession. The hot seat member is allowed to say “pass” for any too personal questions —
avoid asking anything too personal,
as it can ruin the fun
.
Sample questions:
“
What would you do if you won the lottery?”
“
If you could meet and have dinner with any person who ever lived, who would it be and why? What would you ask that person?”
“
What three words would you use to describe yourself?”
Questions can be funny, too, such as
:
“
What was your most
embarrassing
moment
?”
“What was your proudest moment?”
“
What was the silliest thing you’ve ever done
?”
