Today, we began working on the students' social studies essential question essay. (Yes, social studies.  The way I figure it, writing is writing, no matter what the class)  It is important that they develop a firm understanding of the elements of a good essay.  We went over the introduction as well as an outline for the body of the essay. 

If you need extra help, please refer to the link on the right side of the page, "Help with Writing Essays."  Here's the question, in case parents are interested:

How did the events during the Reconstruction era effect politics, economics, and society as a whole?  Are these effects still evident today? Due Friday, October 11.
