For Friday...

Hello all,

For Friday, we will work on our fables. We will also take the evaluations for my performance.

I am also planning to have time to give you some information about continuing your journey as a writer.

At this point, you should be nearing completion on your project three. To complete the project, you need:

1. Make sure that you have created a blog, and that you have sent me the link to your blog.
2. Once, you have created your blog, you will need to post your project two essay.
3. You then need to look at one of your peer's postings (two draft) and post a comment. You can access a peer's blog by going to my blog thewritingjourney.blogspot.com .
4. You will then post your three organizations under your blog.
5. Then you will post your three letter drafts on your blog.
6. You will then look at a peer's drafts of the letters. You will post a comment about the letters on your peer's blog.
7. Finalize letters and mail/email them.
8. Post your draft of your fable, or post the idea/summation of your fable. The audience is for fifth to eighth graders. You can select one grade or complete the exercise for the range.
9. Participate in a timed-writing in class.
10. Post the timed-writing on your blog.
11. Finalize your fable. Turn in hard copy on Friday or turn in hard copy by Dec. 14 at 5 pm at the Foundations Office.

For the annotated bibliographies, you will need to complete and submit these via hard copy, email, or post on your blog. The four annotated bibliographies are:
1. Apothesis
2. Atonement with the Father
3. The Ultimate Boon
4. Refusal of the Return.

You can turn these in by Friday or you can submit them up to Dec. 14 at 5pm. Email them or drop them off at the Foundations Office.

If any of you are revising project one or two drafts for revised grades, you have until Dec. 14th to complete your revision. Please contact me if you are planning on doing this so that I can augment my grading schedule.

I believe that is it.

Take care, and see you on Friday,

Kat
