Tuesday, Oct. 17 Agenda

}Bell Ringer: Find your – comments in your draft
}Writer’s Workshop:
Come up with a specific plan of attack for one of your areas of concern
Sign up for a conference with me to talk about the plan
Work on REVISING your story (think of the questions from yesterday and human experience, and from the suggestions you just brainstormed, etc)
Remember, part of revising is often DELETING things, not just adding
Universal theme? What are your plans for including it?
Editing Draft:
Pink: basic conventions (punctuation (other than commas), capitalization, etc.) fluency
Yellow: things that are in your editing section: sentence structure (fragment/run-on, comma splice, commas), dialogue format, verb tense, etc.
Take a look at any issues from your first story, to help you know what you may struggle with and should focus on for this story
As you work on your story, our third draft is going to focus on Universal Themes and Fluency

}SSR Week: If you need a break from writing, take some time to read your book. We will be using your blogs for this week’s SSR letter
