Writers'+Week+Ideas

=Story Starters= Students really loved the Story Starters I used on one Friday for creative writing. I made it electronic with Google Docs, which means that I created all the documents beforehand with the story starter at the top. Then I put them in a folder and shared that with the students. Then I had a list of who started with which number. Every 5 minutes we would switch and add on to the story that someone else had started. - Justin

- Seniors are working on their reading/writing e-portfolios. I am also working on having some virtual guests visit our room to discuss writing in the "real" world (and college). - Juniors / Sophomores will be revisiting the steps of writing and creating multiple pieces I hope to share along the way (found poems, visuals, narratives) -ALL of my classes will collaborate and create a word wall on writing (terms, thoughts, etc.).
