Editing, Revising, & Improving your Written Responses to Ch. 23 - 25 quiz


Directions:

I have released all of the scores from the last quiz. You may choose to improve your writing based on the feedback I gave each of you. 

Each question was worth 5 points. For Each student I gave feedback that looked like this:

Intro - 0

Claim - 1

Evidence - 1

Reflection - 0

Mechanics - 1

This student would have scored 3 out of 5. They could go back in and add an intro & a reflection to their answer and improve their score.

Look at the feedback I gave you and make the necessary improvements.


Activity #3
Complete any Past Due Quizzes

Directions:
All of your quiz grades have been returned to you. If you are missing any quizzes this is your last opportunity to complete them and get them handed in. You can find them all under the classwork tab on our google classroom
