Final Portfolio Due Wednesday, May 2

There is no class on Monday, April 30. You will turn your final portfolio in on Wednesday. Your portfolio should be in a 3 ring folder (not binder). Remember, you will be graded on the overall look of your portfolio. Here is what should be included:

1. First Page will need to be a title page with your name and class.

2. Second page will be the table of contents. Your Essays will be the first things listed and this is the order they should be:

     -Persuasive/Argumentative Essay (please include the Title of your paper)

     -Analytical Essay (please include the Title of your paper)

     -Personal Narrative (please include the Title of your paper)

     -Picture Description Essay (please include the Title of your paper)

So your last essay that you've written will be the first one. Also, if you are rewriting one of your essays YOU MUST INCLUDE THE ONE I HANDED BACK TO YOU AND YOUR REWRITTEN ONE. Please don't just correct the things I marked. Look at all my notes and comments, and the paper should be fairly different from the original.

After the essays on the table of contents, you will then list your journals in order of the date they were submitted, starting in January through April. Below is the list of journal entries and the day they were due.
