Finally Final Drafts!

Work in teacher's comments and corrections into a final draft of the Akeelah and the Bee and "Root of Freedom" essay. Most common comments were as follows.

1. Movies such as Akeelah and the Bee should be italicized when typed and underlined when written.

2. Short excerpts from autobiographies with a different title than the autobiography such as "The Root of Freedom" should be enclosed in quotes. The title of the autobiography such as The Narrative of the Life of a Slave should be italicized when typed and underlined when written.

3. The theme paragraph must include the theme from both works--hopefully you found a recurring theme. Specific details from the movie and narrative must be included to support the theme.
