March 18 class assignments

Hi class,

I apologize for the tardiness of the assignment being sent out. My new job is taking up all my time, and I was sick the whole weekend. I missed vocabulary again, so there won't be a test on Thursday. I know you're all heart-broken.

Journals due at the beginning of class Thursday.

This week's essay is due Wednesday at 10 a.m. It is a one-page letter of complaint. Follow the worksheet from class. You must include all four elements in your letter. It must be a real problem mailed to a real person (though you aren't going to actually mail it). You must have the person's address, so if it's a city official, do a little research and find an address. Include a salutation at the end and your name.

On this week's essay only, do not worry about having the proper header, etc. Have Wednesday, March 17, 2010 as the actual date. Your essay should be no more than one page in length, in 12-point Times Roman or like font, with one-inch margins. For this essay only, do not double space. I want the letter to look just as it would going out to a real person.

Any questions email me. Thanks.

Mr. Mead
