The Portfolio

For Thursday, 11/20, you want to have your Portfolio ready: 

• You need two Portfolio folders, which you can buy at the MC bookstore. 

• In each Portfolio folder: identical copies of your best two revised essays, as polished as you can get them.

• From: Essay 1, 2, 3 or Midterm (two copies of best two)
• CLEAN COPIES, meaning no writing on them

• Your in-class final will also be placed in each folder, so make sure you really study for that final essay.

• You want to make sure you finish the essay, or nearly finished when time is called.
• You want to make sure you edit the essay.
• You want to make sure you demonstrate a solid thesis statement, topic sentences, use of signal phrases, and a well-laid out introduction
