Today, we reviewed the criteria we generated last class for what makes an effective narrative beginning. Then, students were asked to write a narrative beginning, using one of three prompts as inspiration. After 30 minutes of writing, students shared their beginning with two peers, and sought feedback: one comment on something done well, and one suggestion for improvement for next time. I collected the beginnings and will read and comment on them for Monday's class.
Remember to read your second chunk of your Literature Circle book and prepare a Page of Thoughts to share on Thursday.
Also, remember to bring a donation for the food bank. This is perhaps the most important thing you can do this week. I like winning. And being charitable.
