HW from Tuesday, 1/23/18

Due on Thursday, 1/25/18

1) Following the form in your Writer’s Inc book—which you made a handwritten copy of for homework over the weekend—make a new graphic display of the plot line (see p. 259 if needed) which you will “fill in” with specifics from your version of the mystery story.

Your new plot line graphic should include labels of all five main components of a plot line, but in the space to the left “rising action,” list five or more specific incidents of rising action that you anticipate including in your story. At the top, list what you plan to have the climax of your story be. Also write several particulars that you anticipate including in the “falling action” and “denouement” to be sure your story has a satisfying conclusion with no “loose ends” and unanswered questions.

2) On the back of this completed graphic, write a 2-3 sentence “teaser” for your story (like what would appear on a book jacket to make you want to read it)

3) Complete your next opening verse essay, which you will turn in on Thursday.

Also, daily:

+ Read your (approved) book for pleasure, aiming for 30 minutes daily. Mark the number of minutes on your Reading Log as you go along—in multiples of five, rounded down—and have a parent initial it in the box each day. The January Reading Log will be due on Thursday, 2/1/18.

+ Make your bed! :)
