Portfolio (to date)

 It is time to turn in your PORTFOLIO (to date).

PORTFOLIOs are an organized accumulation of your completed essays to date. 
You should have a slender 3 ring binder (or something similar) in which to hold your essays. 

Be sure to place every completed essay in its own page protector.

Assemble them in chronological order with the most current in the front.

Compose a "Table of Contents" as your cover page. I have provided an example below. DO NOT number your pages.

Print out your essays with NO indications.  You can read comments or just apply knowledge you have gained throughout the year.

For example:

no banned words
1s,  4s,  5s, and 7s always need a comma
NO comma with bc DRESS UPs
(2) with 4 or more words MUST have a comma,
Apply the cc rule (comma/conjunction rule)
