Period 2 Waste-24-25

6.B.1 Match the quotations with their themes

6.B.2 Determine the themes of short stories

You have two IXLs for theme practice--remember you must reach a smart score of 90 to complete the assignment.

2 pts for the completed IXL


I have included the video we watched in class in case you are absent or need extra support.

You could revise your essay by scoring under 80% on your Theme Essay Writing Task. 
You can only get up to a B as a total score.

If your score is above 80%, you can ignore this assignment

The conditions for revisions are as follows: Copy and paste the entire character essay below the line on this document.

Focus on the areas that Mr. Waste has commented on in your original essay.

You must highlight any changes you make in yellow so that Mr. Waste can easily see them and compare them to the previous version. 

Your essay must be double-spaced, 12 pt font (Arial or Times New Roman).

Some of your revisions may only need you to review how to write citations correctly. In contrast, others may require you to rewrite significant sections (rewrite your reasoning, add context if missing, add final thought to your conclusion, etc.).

If you would like to conference with Mr. Waste at Flex during a break or before/after school, please contact him through email.

Use the color-coded Squeaky Essay as a model for your revisions.

The due date for revisions is 5:00 pm on Friday, December 6, 2024.
