In Class Essay

Class,

Tomorrow we will work on an in-class essay for TSI and SAT preparation. I will give you some pointers on how to raise your score, what you really want to include, and how to do your best on these evaluations. I know a few of you are preparing for dual enrollment, SAT and ACT exams, and college. I will spend about half an hour giving you my best tips for success. You will then have 50 minutes to respond to the essay prompt I will hand out. Please bring paper and something to write with.

Kindly,
Heather


P.S. The good news is, after this month, you will have little writing left to do! However, we sure have covered quite a bit! Be proud of all the work you have done this year. I assure you, it is much more work than you would have in a public school classroom. And if you have managed to keep up with me this far, you will likely do just fine in a Freshman Composition class in college.  If you know you are planning on dual credit this fall for English composition, come chat with me. I have a good friend that teaches English at CTC on Fort Hood and he'd be happy to have you in class. I've sent my own son to him and even took classes with him myself. He's a fantastic teacher!
