Friday, we read Morley Callaghan's story, "All The Years Of Her Life" and created a what/so what? chart to answer the question: Discuss what Alfred learns about his mother the day he is caught shoplifting.
Today, we wrote a 250-350 word, formal, literary paragraph. We used all of our handouts: literary must-haves sheet, the transitions sheet, hook sheet, how to cite sheet, how to incorporate quotations sheet, our corrected paragraphs from last week, and a thesaurus. Next, we edited the paragraph to catch any errors.
Writing formal paragraphs takes practice. This paragraph is number 3. If you feel lost, please make an appointment to see me. I am available before or after school.
