Self edit and peer edit the 2nd draft in Google Classroom

Self edit and peer edit the 2nd draft

Self edit:
1. Hook -Add 3+ sentences about the topic (quality) in general (in life and without using any character names).

2. Have true topic sentences for your body paragraphs. Each should read like a partial thesis. Know what you’re discussing in each body paragraph. Then, treat your thesis like it’s an umbrella covering two people (your two topic sentences). Those topic sentences are different, but they work together. Have you divided your body paragraphs in the best way possible?

3. Check for but, yet, however
,but
However,
Yet,
Almost any but in the middle of a sentence requires a comma before it. When starting sentences with yet and however, one needs to put commas just AFTER the word.

4. Add 1+ sentence/s of a go beyond. This is at the very end of your paper. You’ll need at least one more sentence that broadens again. Think upside down martini glass or funnel.

5. Can you articulate how your title does THREE things?
Interesting-
On topic-
Suggestive of tone or argument-

6. Is your paper as professional (academic) as it can be? Consider dropping all contractions.

7. Swap papers with at least one other person. Give some written feedback to the person regarding the first six questions.
