HW from 2/28/13

Due on 3/5/13: 

* Finish your Haiku assignment.  (See handout.)  All three illustrated poems and the draft with your proofreaders' signatures on it are due Tuesday.

* Review the elements of narration in preparation for the next story you will be writing.  Be ready for a quiz on the elements of narration (especially the most recent one studied, plot) on Tuesday.

* Be thinking about the next story you want to write.  Specifically, consider:

- What theme might you like to illustrate?

- Which point of view will you write in (first or third person)?
NOTE: Third person is much more common and much easier to do well.

- Will you write in past or present tense?
NOTE: Past tense is much more common and much easier to do well.


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, March 28--the last day before Spring Break.)
