Friday, Feb. 12 Agenda

}Bell Ringer: Theme of “The Sniper” Discussion: collect TIQA paragraph after discussion
}**Mrs. J theme: War causes people to do things they think are right but that they regret in the end: “cold gleam of the fanatic” “the lust of battle died in him” “bitten by remorse”
}Writer’s Workshop
}Your short story: story map/plot chart outline
Get it checked before beginning First Draft (Map due by the end of the block)
}POV –first, third limited, third omniscient
}Dialogue –make it sound natural
}Starting out the story –make sure you have all aspects you need to have when you write: this means you need all of the ideas we’ve looked at while reading short stories this year
}**Drafting Time –first draft needed by Tuesday, end of work time (if done Monday end of time = Extra Credit) {Shared with me, typed, double spaced }, Second draft due Wednesday
}You must share your draft with me on Google Docs or email it to me
I will be checking in on your progress throughout class

}If you do need a break, read your book rather than cause a distraction (also, don’t go to sites other than those being used for music or research for your story)
