Blog Topics & Upcoming Restaurant Review

Today we will continue talking about graphs and data in our writing. I will talk to each student personally about some things from your essay.

Next week (Nov. 3) is a holiday, so we have no Essay Writing class. Since you'll have some extra time, I want to introduce the next essay, which will be a Restaurant Review. I'll give you details in class, but meanwhile, please think of a restaurant, bar or coffee shop you can visit, preferably with some friends, so you can write about it. You'll also need to take some pictures, so be thinking about that, too.

Today, if you have time to blog, here are some suggestions:
