The 20-points-possible Asteroid Problem Writing Assignment

EDue no later than Thursday or Friday, April 8 or 9, 2008 in the Library classroom

!Write a complete, well-organized and well-supported paragraph to each of the people you will cast out of the shelter, explaining why they are to be excluded.

These paragraphs will be sent to their respective people to make them feel a bit better as the Dark Matter Asteroid enters Earth’s atmosphere and obliterates them.

In your paragraphs, please be as specific and kind as you can be as well as use your best English (complete sentences, proper usage, and paragraph structure).

üTo complete this assignment, you must submit six separate paragraphs.

Note: If your knowledge of paragraph structure is a bit rusty, refer to Paragraphs Made Easy on our Website.

!Devote one to two of your five weekly journal entries to your Asteroid Problem group experience.

In your journal entries, feel free to “vent” honestly about your experience during the group discussion (no one will read these but you), but also consider writing honestly about your behavior, participation, and contributions (or lack of them) to your group.

üAllow me to scan your entry to gain five points. (I will not read any specific content).
