That's not unreasonable for a summer course, Dani. The key is to work a given amount of scheduled time each day - that way you're not rushing on anything.

that's an idea...the teacher keeps saying how all the papers will tie in together, but I have no idea how. so how can I write my first paper if I don't know the other paper topics?! what if my topic isn't right for the other papers? a paper a week is not enough time!

You write the first paper as required, and trust your instructor to know what he/she is doing in terms of assigning future topics, so that one builds on the next.

In other words, you're worrying too much.

If you need someone to look over the first paper for proofreading help, come knock on my door.
