Proposal Writing Time and Goal-Setting

Starter

• Look back at your Writing Portfolio on your DP and the 3 writing goals you decided upon for yourself earlier this semester. You might want to also review my feedback on the timed essay.
• On the rubric Ashley hands out in class, set some specific goals for this essay. Please do the following:

1. Write down the grade you are aiming for in each category
2. Circle the specific skills on the rubric that align with the goals you developed on your DP
3. On the back of the rubric, summarize the specific goals you have related to the requirements for this proposal. For example, maybe you really want to make sure you provide solid context for the reader in the intro so they understand why this is a relevant issue, or maybe you want to make sure to integrate a mix of pathos/ethos/logos in section 2 to be as persuasive as possible, or maybe you want to make sure you have a solid thesis statement.....
