Important Note to Students

The HAMLIT assignment page is a convenience but not something to be dependent on. When possible, homework and reading assignments will be posted here, but you are expected to complete all assignments that are announced in class on time, regardless of whether they are posted online. If you are absent, or do not remember if there is an assignment, you will need to contact another member of class to verify what the assignment is. Neither I nor the site are responsible for your failure to complete this responsibility.

Due Thursday--Revised Writing Sample

For Thursday, you are performing style revisions on the immigration writing sample that you wrote for Mr. Nickel today in history. The rubric below shows what you will be evaluated on in regards to style. Please do not focus your revisions on content, but instead work on sentence beginnings, reducing passive, progressive, and linking, transitional strategies, etc.

You will be turning in your raw copy with revisions marked, and then a final copy that you typed with the revisions made.

Style Rubric

(My apologies that the style rubric still contains spelling/usage errors, but time did not permit me to make the changes and still get this information posted.
