WRITING ASSIGNMENT 

The Review-- The Five Best OR The Five Worst

     Your assignment is to do a review of the five best or the
five worst of anything.

Some suggestions are:

               --french fries or hamburgers
               --fast food restaurants
               --restaurants
               --experiences of your life
               --TV shows
               --movies
               --shoes
               --baseball or hockey or swimming or checkers 
                 teams


First--Define the Area

     Start with an introduction to your topic and explain exactly
what you are going to do and the way that you are going to
compare the five things that you are doing.
     If you are doing the five best restaurants, outline what you
would probably look for in a restaurant and why you chose the
ones that you did.

Second--The Arrangement

     You want your review to build up to something and therefore
you should save the best of the best or the worst of the worst
until the end.  Build up to your big one.

Third--The Format

     Write a paragraph for each one and use complete sentences.

Fourth--The Style

     You can be humourous if you want but be sure to inform the
reader.  Try to pick aspects of something that are unique and
avoid words such as "stupid" and "it sucks".

Hand in a rough copy and a final copy. 
Plan ahead-- You will have ONE computer lab period to complete
the assignment in its entirety so work efficiently.
