President Research Paper Information - Dates Changed! Please Read!

#Davis8, I have modified this post to include some new information regarding the President Research Paper.. I am trying to go easy on you right now as I know this has been a very difficult two weeks.  Please know that I care more about how you are doing and that you are learning much much more than I care about the grade!

I put an incredible amount of time and energy in creating and perfecting the Purple Sheet for you that showed you every possible detail I could think of... I hope you used your class time wisely.

You have until Friday, March 20 at 4 pm to e-mail me questions regarding your paper... If you have any questions, please include those questions at the bottom of your paper so far and type them in red font...  

I will respond to these e-mails as quickly as possible.  Please do not send me a trillion e-mails with only one question.  Put everything in one e-mail.  There are 49 of you and only one of me....

When you send me your final draft paper, please title your e-mail:  "Your Name Final Copy"  example:  "Jake Smith Final Copy"

Email your papers as a PDF document or share them via Google Docs to mbarry@davisacademy.org by Monday, March 23 at Noon, EST.  

I will be lenient if there are a few hiccups in citations if there is a mistake here and there about how the paper is written.  I understand some of you have stressed over this assignment and this assignment was not created to do that.  You have had more than five full class periods to work on the paper and for those who reached out to me, I have responded. 

Be a good classmate and share this information with your classmates so they are in the loop...


When times get tough, the tough get going!  Enjoy an inspiring speech by Winston Churchill.
