English 12: It's the FINAL countdown...

Hey everyone! Today's the day! This is it...try not to tear up as you finish your portfolio--you'll short out the computers...

Here's what you need to complete today:
* Make sure your Catcher in the Rye essay and your "Stranger in the Photo" essay are both completed, and posted on the correct pages of your portfolio (not as attachments, like the other pieces of writing you're including in the portfolio). The easiest way to post your essays on your portfolio pages is by embedding the Google docs version. I'll show you how to do this. Scan the photo you used for your "Stranger in the Photo" essay and include it with your essay, if you haven't already.

* Complete and post your final essay on the Final Essay page.

* Write your reflections to go on your Analytical Writing and Personal Writing pages. In these reflections, please talk about how you've grown as a writer. Discuss some of your challenges and successes. How does this final piece of writing, the one posted on the page, represent you as a writer?

* Create a portfolio "cover page" on your website. Put a picture on the English Portfolio page, and include your name, the course title, and the year.

* Please complete this course evaluation. I'd really appreciate your thoughtful and honest feedback.

* Make sure that your website, and any documents included in it, are shared with me through Google Docs.

* Breathe a sigh of relief--you're done!
