Friday, Feb. 24 Agenda

}Bell Ringer: Roots (I’ll collect SSR while you brainstorm)
}In Writer’s Notebook: What do you know about Shakespeare and/or his works? List anything and everything you can think of about who he was/is, what he wrote, when he wrote, etc.
}Writer’s Workshop: turn on computer
Narrative Leads: Post the beginning of your story on your blog.  Your Commenting Collaborator will read what you have so far and give suggestions: what narrative leads technique is being used, what can be done to keep reader’s interest, what questions do you have, etc.
Once you’ve posted, check your collaborator’s blog, then comment, then go back to your post, read their comments, and get back to work on writing your story
Remember to think of Universal Theme!!
Make sure you are basing what is happening off your research (do more if needed)
First draft (Craft Draft) can be done at the end of workshop time (shared with me on Google Docs or emailed to me if you are using Microsoft Word) but is due by Monday evening (but there will be no class time for it Monday)

Work on your first draft over the weekend, when it is done, write “Name Completed Craft Draft” as the document title on Google Drive: I will only read through drafts that say this
