Assignments for the Week of March 23

This week we will end our discussion on The House on Mango Street. Creative vignettes are due Friday, March 27. Reminder -- Vignettes handed in on Monday, March 30 will be penalized 2 letter grades lower & no papers will be accepted after that date. Please review the assignment sheet for the requirements for this creative project. This will be the last major grade for the marking period.

We will also begin working on our The Treatment of Women in Other Cultures thesis paper. This will be a comparison/contrast paper & will involve some research material to use as secondary sources. You will have to complete an organizational outline, a works cited page, and a rough draft for this paper. Due dates for each will be given in class. Although most of the process of this thesis paper will be included in the 3rd marking period, the final draft of the thesis paper (100 points) will be included in the 4th marking period.
