Assignment: Eng11 Chapter 11 Date:Thu, Sep 17, 2009
Eng11Move one of your journal entries to your blog on OurSpace. Correct it and revise it as you go. Be sure to spell check (you can copy it into Word and spell check it, then paste it back into your blog if your browser doesn’t support spell check). Be sure all your sentences begin with capitals. Be sure you capitalize the pronoun “I” and proper nouns. Be sure to write in complete sentences. Failure to do these things is a “fatal error” and will result in a zero for the assignment.
Read Chapter 11 before Monday.
