Ernest Hemingway

One prepares for an in class assignment by collecting all of their notes and making sure they get any notes from a friend that they don’t have. Somebody also must use discussion questions from Fishbowl Friday’s. Also, you should read any passages or quotes read from the book during class discussions. Lastly, one must look at the most common themes talked about in class and guess what questions that you think are most likely to be asked.

The difference between an in-class essay and a long-term one is that a long term one should usually be longer than a time in-class one. A long term one should be more thorough and use for evidence from the book unless a book is allowed to be used during the in-class essay. Also, you should have an outline in your head when you go into writing a paper in-class and prepare it quickly. A long term essay allots you more time to think about how to organize and explain your thoughts.
