Since students are in the process or trading their papers to continue their Deep Dive Project, I've extended it until Thursday when it needs to be completed.
Here's a example of how it should go: If I write a paragraph with my "AUD" words, I hand my story to someone else to continue my story and add a paragraph with either their "BIO" or "CHRON" words. You are to do this a second time.
You are to hand off your paper to two DIFFERENT PEOPLE and not the same individual.
*****Due to scheduling and challenges trading papers, this assignment is due completed on Monday, October 21. Again, trading papers with classmates has proved to be a challenge. Please have it done by Monday.
