Good morning AY Project Students!

At this point all of you have your biography and should have begun reading. I hope it's going well so far!

Our first essay, which is due by midnight Sunday October 14th, is called "Ups and Downs."

You must focus on the achievements (ups) and challenges (downs) of your person.

Here is your format:
Introduction (1 paragraph):
Tell who your person is, why they're important, what they achieved.
Body (2-4 paragraphs): 
In your body focus on the details of the ups and downs.
How did they become successful?
Did your person overcome the downs? How?
Conclusion (1 paragraph):
Overall, is your person better known for their achievements or their challenges?
What is the person's legacy?

Your essay should be 2 pages. It may not exceed 3 pages. Please double space and use size 12 font, Times New Roman.

At the end include a Works Cited in MLA format with the biography you read.

Your rough draft is due on Monday, October 8th at 5 pm. This will give Emily time to read it by Wednesday morning and give you feedback!

Please send your essay at a Word document, or a google doc to efatlanta@gmail.com.
