First Timed Write (Kind of)

Today in class you wrote your first timed essay. I provided you with a little help by giving you the text ahead of time and by going over the prompt briefly with you. Of course I gave you a huge advantage at the end when I said you could revise it over the weekend.
Surprisingly I saw several people "finish" their essays in about twenty minutes. Remember these are difficult essays and you should be using all the time that you have. If you finish early use the time to go back and revise your writing.

Upcoming: Act 1 guide due Monday along with revised Flamingo essay.
