Well I was glad to see that almost everyone had much stronger drafts done this time around. Again, a rough draft should mean a completed copy there were a few skinny papers. As you work on revising your final draft keep a few things in mind. These are the main things I see in regards to people getting a much lower grade than necessary.
1. Make sure you properly format your paper
2. Make sure you fix any writing style issues it should be 100% free of errors and read smoothly
3. QUOTE support you should have multiple specific examples and quotes from the text to support your claim
4. Have a strong claim that you are always proving
5. Avoid plot summary
It's too cold to do much else this weekend so curl up with a blanket and The Great Gatsby. You should have the book finished by Monday and we'll have our discussion then.
