1. Revise the organization, flow, and/or voice areas of your To Be a Slave essay. Remember to explain that Julius Lester collected and commented upon original slave narratives in To Be a Slave, your source for this essay. Click here for the essay packet, if you are wondering about the requirements for each paragraph. Click here for the peer revision page you used today to guide your revision.

2. Grade the two past To Be a Slave essays in the packet I handed out, according to the rubrics. If you were absent today, you will have to pick up the packet from me tomorrow, as it cannot easily be digitalized and made linkable on this blog site.

3. Read up to the 1/5th point in your Civil War book by Wednesday night. Your first letter to your partner is due Thursday morning!
