I know I’ve been a little behind in keeping up with the assignments and documents, class, but here’s one that you should absolutely use:

Extended Writing Organization

This document is the one I gave you in class (the pink sheet), but here’s a digital copy you can keep and use for your college application essay. Use it – and save it to the homework drive on our school network so I can check in and see how you’re doing, maybe leave you some comments as we go. If you start doing any drafting in class today, save that to your homework drive as well (in a separate file in your personal folder) so I can glance at those as well. Remember that getting the writing right is one of the most important things here – these essays could get you admission to the college of your choice.
