Objective: I can produce clear and coherent writing in which the development, organization, and style are appropriate to task, purpose, and audience. (W11-12.4).
Agenda:

• Entry Task:  Get out your notebook and all materials you have created throughout the course of this unit.  You will also need a Chromebook.
  
• Review the directions for the Synthesis Essay
  
• Pretend it is your first finals in college, and you have to write a synthesis essay.  You have no idea what that is, so you watch this video   
  
  • As explained in the video, you may outline or map your ideas first, or you can just begin writing, but you will need to follow the guidelines below for this version of a synthesis essay.
    
  • Utilize the class materials you created to help yourself.  
    
  • I will answer clarifying questions, but not tell you what to write.  Use your resources!
    
• Write as much of your essay as you can today; you will also have tomorrow to finish
  

Exit Task:  Write a comment to yourself in your essay about where you are going to begin tomorrow, so you know where to begin.
