➤ WRITE ESSAY 1

(due next class)

Read the essay instructions carefully. Then go exploring!! (Don’t leave this assignment till the last minute — it’ll be more fun if the experience isn’t rushed.)

Please upload your assignment as a .doc or .docx file to our shared Box folder.

➤ READ EXCERPTS FROM “HERE IS NEW YORK” AND “SHORT CUTS”

As you read, find one good example of each of these things, and come to class ready to share it:

  • a scene (whatever you understand that to mean)

  • abstract language (whatever you understand that to mean)

  • concrete language (whatever you understand that to mean)
