Mentor Essay

Students are currently working on a MyAccess.com essay.  Today and tomorrow will be the last days I will provide time for students to work in class, but they are welcome to work on their essays at home from now until over the weekend.  Monday I will be recording their final scores.

So far I've really enjoyed reading through them, so I am looking forward to see the final products!
