10/2/2012

0 Comments

 
When you are finished with your Sir Gawain in-class essay, you are to read the following article:

    Download now: "Good Readers and Good Writers" by Vladimir Nabokov

Read it first to get an overall impression of its argument; then take a look at the “questions to consider” at the end of the essay. 

IN-CLASS WORK: You should answer these questions by annotating – underlining, highlighting, and making notes on the text or in the annotation margin. When you are finished with your annotations and notes, save this document and dropbox it at the end of
class
. You will be graded on the quality of your annotations. 
 
HOMEWORK: When you are finished with your annotations, write a 2-3 page LRJ entry reflecting on Nabokov’s “Good Readers and Good Writers.” Your LRJ entry should include the answers to the “questions to consider” found at the end of the essay. Due next class.
