This week we'll be putting the finishing touches on our Wonders of Ancient Egypt reports.

You'll draft your introductory statement and final clincher and work each day revising your report.  Remember to keep that SRN handy.  Add transition words between paragraphs, eliminate as many "to be" verbs and replace with good action words.  Add quality 5 sense adjectives that APPROPRIATELY describe the nouns in your paper.

I can't wait to celebrate next week and hear those well written reports!!!
