I apologize, but it will take me the rest of this week to get your college essays back to you.  Starting tomorrow, I will try to hand back about 7 per day.

Take out materials - MagnaSoles prompt and passage, AP rubric, AP student essay examples.  Read essay 1, 2, and 3 quickly and independently, perhaps making a few notes about the quality of each, and the score yo might give them.  (10 mins) 

First essay...In your composition book this weekend you were supposed to have written down at least 6 lines from this esssay, so you should be fairly well acquainted with it. So, beginning with the first student essay, discuss with your partner what score (1 through 9) you think it deserves deserves and why.  With your partner, write a paragraph (5 to 7 sentences) explaining the grade you gave to each.  (10 mins)...

Group discussion of essay # 1 and share one AP writer's score...
