Don't let procrastination happen to you...

Take a lesson from Spongebob--don't procrastinate!


Guidelines for Argumentative Outline

If you were absent Friday, 2/28, here is the outline format you will need to follow. Outlines will be due Tuesday, March 4. In the event of a snow day, they will be due at the beginning of class on Wednesday, March 5. Either way, you will probably need to work on this some at home. Let's hope we don't have a snow day!

After the outline step, the next step is the rough draft! The outline is simply a plan for your paper. The more detailed it is, the easier your rough draft will be.
