*How to prepare for Monday!

Rules of thumb when it comes to writing sessions:

1. Come prepared!
   1. Read through the timeline you made in the beginning of the semester. Look at the blog, notes from class and homework, and the compendium "American History".
   2. Read the excerpt from Martin Luther King Jr.'s speech "I have a dream". See blog post above.
2. Read the tasks thoroughly! Make sure that you understand the tasks and that you know what the task is asking you to do.
3. Show your knowledge, but make sure that you stick to the topic.
4. Show that you have expanded your vocabulary by using words such as civil rights, independence, abolition, declaration, constitution, segregation, freedom fighter, equality, emancipation correctly.
5. Use connecting words and various ways to express your opinion. Avoid using the words VERY and REALLY! 
6. Read through your text thoroughly before you hand it in. Check for errors, typos, and verb conjugations. Your message must be clear – rewrite sentences if you are unsure. Make sure you don’t do the same mistakes as you have done earlier.
7. Remember:
1. That you can bring all the aids you need - but you cannot use the Internet. 
2. That you only have two school hours to complete the task - so come prepared.
3. Check this out. It´s just a hint.
