Throughout the period, I checked in with individuals to get a sense of where they were in their research and to answer any questions people had.

Homework:

Write a second section (second of the seven) for your research paper (due Friday at the end of class)
At this point everyone should have all of the sources (at least 7 + the interview) they need for this project and at least 20 notecards (more are fine). If you do not have 7 sources and 20 notecards, continue finding sources and creating notecards.
