Assignment for 8/31

Hi, class:

Here is our English 21A blog, where you will find important class information—on homework, reading and essay assignments, library trips, etc.

For this class, you will need to stay on task, especially because we meet only once a week. In fact, it's a wise idea to keep ahead of the game—that means completing the assignments right away, not waiting until the night before they are due.

Here are the first tasks to do. Take care of these tasks today (Friday, 8/31), after our class ends. You will have other assignments for this weekend (those instructions are in the next post), so do these first tasks now.

• Purchase all required class items mentioned in the syllabus. Bring those items to class on Friday.
• Flash drive
• Notebook
• Three-ring binder
• Four large blue books
• Go to Doc Sharing on our eCompanion page. Download and print out all four readings in the "Starters" section (Ueland, Lamott, Tan, Vowell). Bring all four printouts to class on Friday.
