Our Upcoming Research Project

As many of you are well aware, we have a pretty substantial project deadline heading our way--the research project. With rolling eyes, painful groans, and a stressed out teacher, this bomb was dropped last week;however, I have taken a new outlook on this supposed horrifying essay. As I begin to write my outline and rough draft, I have become more and more excited to put together this essay for a few reasons. First off, it's a great way to tie together all of the essays we've been reading thus far in second quarter. At times it seemed as though we were reading the same essays over and over because they all had that central connection to America. After starting this essay, though, it's clear that they all have a devine uniqueness to them. Also, I think this will give each and every one of us a real sense of accomplishment. At the completion of our essays, we will each have come up with an idea that nobody else in this world has ever thought of and researched. How phenomenal is that?! Overall, I'm getting more and more excited for this! It may also be because I love writing, not reading, and we haven't had many writing assignments this quarter (tear :( )
