Reminder: Keep all your work, including graded freewrites, pre-writes, and published drafts. We'll need them to revise.
Due Monday: Rough draft of two poems or two pages of fiction that include strong figurative language, killer first lines, lots of showing, clear, believable characters. Your rough draft needs to a document that is separate from your freewrites and pre-writes.
Coming Friday: Sharing Time
Coming Wednesday: The laptops are coming! The laptops are coming!
