HW from 2/7/13

Due on 2/12/13:

* Write a springboard poem, using the parameters given in class yesterday:

+ Every line begins with "I" and is a complete sentence, ending with a period.
+ The first and last lines are identical.
+ It is written in first person point of view.
+ There are 3 stanzas of 4 lines each.

NOTE: There is a sample springboard poem in your Writer's Inc. book.   (I can't give you the page number since Joel has my book and I have his, which has different page numbers!  Look it up in the index under poetry.)

* Type and print your springboard poem and bring it to class on Tuesday.

* Continue working on your story, adding at least two pages per "homework day" between classes until it is done.  

NOTE: Once your story is logically finished in a way that is pleasing to you, you do not need to add any more pages.  (Duh!)  Your finished story must be more than 5 full pages but no more than 25 full pages when completed.  Refer to the grading rubric Evie gave you for information about how your story will be graded.

* Choose your memory verse (Titus 2:11-14 or Ephesians 4:29-32).  If you didn't already do so, make a memory card (or equivalent) for the verse and bring it to class each day.

* Be ready to recite your memory verse whenever called on, which will be at random on any class day.

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, February 28.)
