HW from Thursday, 1/4/18 (Classes Canceled – Snow!)

Due ON AND BEFORE Tuesday, 1/9/18 (My Birthday!)

I hope you have enjoyed your snow days! Since we did not have class on Thursday, please complete the following items before Tuesday:

1) Find your saved, typed copy of your character sketch. (This is something you wrote and turned in previously.) Email it as a Word or PDF attachment to the following email address (henceforth known as "my Markup address"): laurasitterding@markupsync.com [Please follow the instructions for sending a paper to MarkUp found in the right column of this homework blog. Doing so will be part of your grade for this assignment.]

This will import your document into an editing program. I will edit it and email the "marked-up" MarkUp copy back to you. (We will be using this MarkUp program extensively during the writing and editing of your first complete story, which we will begin on Tuesday.)

2) Once you send your document to MarkUp, send me a text or regular email to let me know that you have done so, so I can check that I have received it successfully. Please send it ASAP—preferably today!—so that I have time to mark it and send it back to you in time for you to make the needed corrections to the document before Tuesday. (The first five papers I receive will get two extra credit points for timeliness. The second five papers I receive will get one extra credit point. The rest of you will only get full credit if I have your paper before Monday.)

3) As soon as I can get it edited ("marked up"), I will email it back to you as an attachment. Print the MarkUp copy and a copy of your beautiful, edited draft (called D2) and bring them to class on Tuesday. You do not need to staple them together.

4) Be sure you have read pages 72-102 in the Mark Rodriguez book.

5) Bring both of your Scripture memory cards to class. Be prepared to recite both of your memory verses. Practice to get it word-perfect, with nice flow!

6) Bring your verse essay (for the opening) to turn in if you haven't already.

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! :)

OPENING (oral presentation of Bible verse and prayer):

Please be ready to do the opening on any day! I will have your verse essay available for you.
