Last week [or was it the week before?] your homework was to interview four people about spending money and living on their own. Everybody should have been able to find and interview at least 3 of the 4 people on the list by now.
Your assignment today is to write a standard 5-paragraph essay using the material you gathered in your interviews. You should have an introductory paragraph, three body paragraphs, and a conclusion paragraph. Discuss what you learned: living on your own, differences among age groups, and spending habits.
Remember that I am interested in what YOU think and feel about what you learned as much as I am the data itself. Something that sets you apart from everybody else in this class is that only you know what you think and feel.
PLEASE put some real thought into this essay. I appreciate intelligent thoughts, interesting data, and funny anecdotes.
Tomorrow we will be talking about budgets, so make sure your Interview about personal budgets is done.
