Things we did today:

- Chapter 3 (French Revolution) tests handed back
Reminders:
- Paragraphs due tomorrow, Dec. 10, 2013
- Statement/stance is clear: choose either "hero" or "tyrant"
- No "I think" statements
- The introduction sentence and the concluding sentence are only one sentence each
- Use transition words (firstly, secondly, lastly, also, in addition, furthermore, to conclude)
- Make sure to include facts (dates, names, statistics, explanations, etc.)
