HW from 1/22/13

Due on 1/24/13:

* Complete all work you have previously missed on the mystery story--in the order in which it was originally assigned--as quickly as possible!!

* On Thursday you will turn in G1 (G1=1st graded part of the story), which consists of the following--in reverse order from bottom to top--to be graded over the weekend:

- chart (or equivalent) of your plot line
- your first two vignettes, which you already turned in and got back with my comments on them
- the tan sheet, with my comments on it
- a good copy of what you've written so far on your mystery story (which at this point should be at least 2 full, double-spaced, typewritten pages)

* PLEASE NOTE all of the following:
+ Many of you turned this in yesterday.  If you did not turn in everything listed above for G1, please complete what you were missing and have it ready to turn in tomorrow. 

+ You must use standard 12-point font (Times or Arial), standard 1-inch margins, standard paragraph indentions, and standard double-spacing for your paper. Do not attempt to meet the various length requirements as we go along by making the paper "look longer" by adjusting your margins, changing your font, increasing your font size, etc.

+ You are not required to write any more on your story for tomorrow than what is listed above for G1. However, if you want to write more--and you've been cleared on the tan sheet to continue--you may do so. 

+ You may add, delete, or change things in your plan for your story at any time as you go along.  

+ You are not "locked in" to what you originally put on your plot line chart.  That was just to assist you in thinking through and planning out your story.  Don't feel bound by it.

+ You may call, text, or email me any time with questions. If I don't respond right away, I will as soon as possible. Don't be afraid to try again if you don't hear from me in a timely fashion or if you're still confused. 

+ I am available in the sanctuary or the kitchen every day after class (during lunch). Feel free to come see me for help. 

+ Send me an email letting me know you read the "PLEASE NOTE" list above. 

+ There is sickness in our community! Be careful to get plenty of sleep, to eat healthful food, to limit sugary foods and drinks, and to wash your hands often! We want you to stay healthy!!

ALSO:
* Reading for Reading Log: 30 minutes daily. (Reading Log is usually due, signed by parent, at the end of the month.  This month it will be due on Thursday, January 31.)
