​

Warm Up

Open your class folder on Google Drive or OneDrive.

-Make sure all of your documents are labeled and organized into appropriate folders.

-Make sure that when you click "share" on each document, that it is set to Anyone with Link "can comment."

-Run through this checklist to ensure that each item is present:

• Warm Ups Running Document

• Reading Response 1

• Reading Response 2 (1&2 might be on the same document if you are choosing to have a running document)

• Discovery Log 1

• Discovery Log 2 (again, these might be on the same long document if that's how you chose to organize

• Introductory Letter

• Portfolio Practice 1

If you are missing any of these documents, part of your homework over the rest of the week is to ensure that all work assigned thus far is complete by this Sunday, September 16, at midnight, when Reading Response 3 and Discovery Log 3 are also due. You are responsible for completing your work, which is necessary to have sufficient evidence of your work and engagement in the Midterm Portfolio due on October 12 (which is a month from today!!).
