  English III work for the week of Monday, April 27 to May 1 These two assignments are due by midnight Friday, with the exception for those who receive extended time. Their work is due by midnight Sunday. As always, share: 2006630  I am available for individual help. Please e-mail me with any questions. We began our rhetorical unit with a learning about the three basic devices that we use to make an argument, so that someone agrees with our point of view.

First of all, thank you for your hard work last quarter and difficult adjustment in moving on line. As we have a full quarter, there will be no bonus work. Please check the assignments carefully. As always, communicate with me. I love hearing about what you are doing. I will post all the week's work by Sunday evening. You  have until midnight Friday to submit your work , but please don't hesitate to send along the assignments earlier. For anyone who receives extended time, you will have until the following Sunday evening. This should allow you to balance your other academics and responsibilites. Make sure to clearly identify your assignment .  As no one should be failing this quarter, there will be no partial credit for work received late. I am modifying the work , so you have plenty of time. If you have a question, send me an e-mail. Lots of you do this already!
