As we discussed in class, prepare for the in-class essay on your independent reading book, and be sure to bring your book to class so you can use it during the essay. Also, read and annotate pp. 1-29 of Malcolm Gladwell's The Tipping Point. Lastly, bring your Pocket Style Manual to class to review MLA formatting.
If you haven't noticed, the instructions for the Two Trains Running essay are posted to the right under "Syllabus and Assignments."
"To the natural philosopher there is no natural object unimportant or trifling…a soap bubble…an apple…a pebble…He walks in the midst of wonders." John Herschel, A Preliminary Discourse on the Study of Natural Philosophy (1830)
