• Your Essay #5 Outline is due Mon. 11/29 at 10 p.m. (20 Points)
• Your Workshop Feedback for Two (2) Classmates is due Fri. 12/3 at 10 p.m.(20 Points)

During the writing process, it is often helpful to have another set of eyes look at our work and help us notice things we can do to improve, whether this is having a stronger hook to pull our readers into our paper focus, adding transitions to flow more smoothly from one idea to the next, or adding more facts into our quotes for stronger evidence to make our argument more persuasive. In addition, it is helpful to hear what we are doing well, so that we can notice our strengths and continue to do this, whether this is having a clear thesis, using anecdotal evidence quotes well to paint a vivid picture for our readers, or precise vocabulary to clearly communicate our ideas.

• First, copy and paste your Essay #5 Outline into your Discussion Response.
• Then Reply to 2 other students by completing the workshop questions.
• Be sure to provide constructive feedback to help your partners notice things they are doing well and things they can improve.

s a review from Week 14, In order to write a well-organized timed essay, it is important to brainstorm and outline our ideas first. In order to effectively plan our upcoming Timed Essay #5 on 12/13, be sure to:

1. 1. Annotate our Timed Essay #5 Directions carefully, noticing the the question, requirements, and tips Pg 1, as well as organization guidelines Pg 2-5.
   2. Review the pre-writing we have already completed for Hidden Figures, including the graphic organizers, class discussions, as well as S & R #4 and #5, brainstorm examples illustrating the kind of mentors, growth mindset, and deliberate practice that helped Dorothy Vaughan, Katherine Goble Johnson, Mary Jackson, and/or Christine Mann Darden become key members of NASA’s team which helped to win the Space Race of the 1960s. (Categorize your examples into separate lists of mentors, growth mindset, and deliberate practice so your ideas are well-organized and you are able to develop clear body paragraphs).
   3. Decide which examples are your strongest to help narrow your essay focus down to a close reading of either one or three of these pioneering individuals, Dorothy Vaughan, Katherine Goble Johnson, Mary Jackson, and/or Christine Mann Darden (Two doesn’t work well since you need 3 support quotes in each body paragraph and it will look lopsided to have 2 quotes for one person but only 1 quote for a second person in each body paragraph. In addition, more than three people in each body paragraph will cause readers to lose focus, so just keep your discussion to either one or three individuals, but not two or four).
   4. Come up with multiple examples for each body paragraph from Hidden Figures, which include three (3) support quotes on mentors for body 1, three (3) support quotes on growth mindset for body 2, and three (3) support quotes on deliberate practice for body 3 (9 quotes total). Do Not Do Any Outside Research and be sure to cite the pages from the unabridged version of the book, Hidden Figures (No electronic copies).
   5. Study the Timed Essay #5 Sample Outline (see below) so your own outline is well-organized for the upcoming workshop on Mon. 11/29.

After carefully planning out the body support examples, write your Timed Essay #5 Outline, which includes:

1. Your own intro paragraph to introduce your essay topic with a clear thesis focus. (See Timed Essay #5 Directions and Writing Tips for effective intros. on page 2).
2. Your own topic sentences for body paragraph 1, 2, and 3. (See Timed Essay #5 Directions and Writing Tips for effective topic sentences on page 3, 4, and 5).
3. Three (3) support quotes for each body paragraph with concrete examples to vividly illustrate your points. (See Timed Essay #5 Directions and Writing Tips for effective quote formatting on page 3, 4, and 5).
4. Add signal phrases and MLA citations for each quote to smoothly integrate them into your discussion, such as:
   1. • Shetterly states that ” ” (12).
      • She further shares that ” ” (Shetterly 70).
      • Shetterly reveals, ” ” (96).
      • She describes, ” ” (Shetterly 11).

**Note that the punctuation is delayed until after the parenthesis when citing a page number, so even if the quote is a complete sentence ending in a period, the punctuation is moved to the end, after the parenthesis: ” ” (96).

The sample timed essay outline below is for a different book, Ben Carson’s autobiography Gifted Hands, but this is a good model for our theme of key factors creating success since the organization and writing style will be similar.
