If you are asking for an "A" you should have done extra credit work and have gotten at least an "B+" on your poetry paper!  PLEASE INDICATE FROM THIS LIST ("A"  "B+"  "B"  "C+"  "C"  "D+"  "D"  "W") WHICH GRADE YOU HAVE EARNED:

GRADE:___________

By submitting this grade sheet I hereby certify that all work submitted for this course is of my own original composition. ___________________________________________________

Note: You are asked to assign yourself the grade you believe you have earned. You should be a better judge, and know more honestly how you did, than just about anyone! However, your professor reserves the right to determine all final grades.
