From Revising to Editing

Several students finished their revisions today in class. Some were even able to move on and do the editing of their essays. Because progress reports go out on Friday Mrs. Scales graded all of the essays that were submitted to Turnitin today. She will do so tomorrow as well so that completed essay grades can show up on the mid-term progress reports.

All completed essays are due no later than the end of each class period tomorrow. Missing essays will receive 0 points and be counted as a missing assignment or NHI in the grade book and on the progress reports. The fine work being turned in on the essays already graded are helping bring up most students’ grades.

About the Author

My life has taken many paths. I grew up in Farmland, Indiana and graduated from Monroe Central High School in 1979. Yes I know that seems like a long time ago to most of you. After I graduated from High School, I went into the U. S. Navy. Not a lot of women enlisted in the Navy back then. Boot camp was still segregated (that means there were only women in my boot camp) and yes, boot camp is as bad as they say it is. I survived though and began seeing a little more of the world than just our lovely corn and soy bean fields of Indiana. I was an advanced avionics technician and worked on F14 Tomcat jets in the Navy. Back then women couldn't go on ships but I was stationed in Bermuda for a little over a year. Bermuda is beautiful and the people are warm and friendly. I married my husband while in the Navy and we eventually moved to Minnesota.
