}Bell Ringer: What do you still need?
} Get your computer, log on,
finish taking notes on sources: Anything that helps answer “What is it like to
be in dealing with ?” –what aspect of the life of that
person/group do you not know yet? Find answers!
}Final class research time (+/-
45 min)
◦You need to have at least one video that
you are using as a resource. Look
through the videos on BBC and Reuters before going to YouTube or just searching
the web
◦Remember, you are going to become a
person with this perspective, so get as much information as you can to help you
write AS a/the person in the situation/event/issue
}AoW Discussion
}Research Writing Project guidelines
}First Person –you ARE the person (I, me,
my, we)
}Realistic Fiction –it is set in the
area/situation you researched, based in REALITY
}Possible Approaches:
◦Memoir –autobiographical writing that
shares narrator’s personal experience
◦Diary entries
◦Letters to someone
}Shows a specific day/series of days or
event or issue
}Not overly filled with statistics (more
like fiction, less like non fiction)
}Shows a universal theme/common issue of
human experience through the thoughts, feelings, actions, plot that you put
your narrator in/give your narrator
}First Person Accounts: Answer the question before you leave
}AoW Reflection due Friday!
