We discussed your paragraphs and ideas for the essay in class today.  I was quite impressed with your ideas, and can't wait to read the product on Monday.

If you were absent, please send me an email and I will get you caught up.

Remember, while we will go through the peer review process on Monday, you should come to class with a typed, "finished" paper.  Seven pages is too many, three is not enough.

Send me an email if you have any questions.
