Everyone then had the rest of the period to work on writing their essay response explaining the problem their civic action problem seeks to solve (see "Bare Bones of an Essay" handout in the outline resources below).
During this time, I met individually with people to respond to questions about the outline and essay writing process.
At the end of class, we reviewed questions to prepare us for a debate we will be observing in Ms. Gervais' AP English class. For homework, everyone should respond to the "before the discussion" questions that were provided in class.
