**Reminder that tomorrow is our in class timed write on the Gilded Age! This is open note so don't stress tonight, just come prepared tomorrow. At most, do a quick scan of our Gilded Age notes and your World's Fair notes after looking at the prompts below and decide which one you might like to write about.

Today we gave and received peer edits of our research paper outlines. We also discussed how to do OPCVL source analysis and some tips on how to turn our outline into a rough draft. See notes below.

Rough draft ideas ** This was also used for my freshmen, so ignore the first slide.

For the OPCVL analysis, focus on the simple 5 sentence version on the back, NOT  the advanced version. This should not take you more than 30 minutes. Keep it simple!
