DWA Practice #3... The final practice! dun...dun...dun...

Students have completed their final practice essay in preparation for the Direct Writing Assessment (DWA) this week!  Wednesday, February 23, and Thursday, Feb 24, we were in the computer labs writing beautiful, persuasive, 5-paragraph essays. 

Our prompt: 
Persuasive: What Makes for Success?   Which would best help you succeed in life as an adult: money, intelligence, or good looks?  Be sure to develop your response fully.

If you have missed class--for SUPAF, sickness, or any other reason--make sure you are making up any missed essay practices!  These can be done up until the last week of the quarter, but the sooner you write, submit, print, and hand in...the better.  

One more important note: extra credit is available!  Any student can complete an additional persuasive essay of their choice from utahwrite.com for extra credit points.  Up to 30 points can be earned!  Take advantage of my benevolence!
