Thoroughly Thursday!

Block A: You are all at various points of this transformational narrative journey. I handed out the self and peer editing sheet today in class. My expectation is that you complete all parts of the editing process and hand in a rough draft with evidence of revision and incorporating the feedback of your editor. There may be some time tomorrow in class to work on your essay - but don't count on it! The double-spaced good copy, rough draft, peer editing sheet, transformational map and brainstorm are all due on Monday.

Block C: Today we started our first unit: short stories! I handed out the terminology that you will need to study for a quiz next week, and we completed the notes on the back of "how to read a short story." These notes will guide our reading practice for the next couple of weeks. Don't forget to photocopy or scan 3 more copies of the story map. We started reading "Wish you Were Here" but we ran out of time - so I will finish reading it to you tomorrow. There is no homework tonight!
