English 11 E, Tues. Sept. 28

Congratulations on your successful in-class essays. You now have the essays returned and you need to edit them. Submit the corrections and the completed green sheets by Friday.

Short Story Assignment. Today we started writing fiction. There are several strict guidelines for these stories. Be sure to follow them.

Our lesson focused on how to "show and not tell". We did three writing exercises today. If you missed them, borrow another student's notes and be sure to do them as you need this practice. We focused on using descriptions of objects to "show" and dialogue with interjections to reveal character.

Thursday: LAST DAY FOR USSR FORMS FOR SEPTEMBER.

This week we will focus on how to write fiction.

Friday: VOCAB. TEST WORDS 1 -13.
