Classwork 2/1

Welcome
We are 2/5 of the way through our ELA 10 work, and 1/5 of the way through our Research Paper. Build on successes, and Rough Draft through mistakes!

(R)eader Section
-review your uploaded work on Turnitin.com for Originality Report
-your goal is to have a score between 10-20%
-scores below 10% may not have enough Direct Quotes
-scores above 20% may have too many Direct Quotes
-notice "basic" and "boring" places that Turnitin.com highlights as not original~ revise these sentences with more interesting diction and syntax
-if you did not have a printed copy checked on Friday, you MUST print a copy for Tuesday

(A)uthor Section
-identify sources for your novel
-begin basic searching (Gale biography), then look for deeper info (book length biography, interviews, or YouTube documentaries)
