Today,
- you submitted your two homework observations.
- I posted a list of names of those of you with missing/late assignments. You have been given until Friday Oct. 12 at lunch to submit all late work.
- We did some review of terminology (see your short story terminology handouts). There will be a vocabulary/concept test on these later in October or early November. We will continue to work with these ideas and I will give you at least a week's notice prior to the test. At that point I'll let you know more about the format of the assessment.
- We read Charles Charles by Shirley Jackson aloud together and took note of the role that perspective and Point of view played in the story.
- Using either Charles or The Friday That Everything Changed by Anne Hart, Complete the following Due October 16th:
- rewrite a portion of one of the stories telling it from an alternate point of view/perspective.
- The aim is to see how shifting who tells the tale influences the story.
- Do not alter plot.
- Keep the characters/setting logically consistent.
- You may alter the formatting (ex. instead of dialogue, you might make it, or add an internal monologue told from within the mind of a character we have not heard the thoughts of yet.)
- This ought to be a minimum of 1/2 page typed. Please do not go over 3 pages. More is not always better.
I very much look forward to reading your creative work.
Ms. S
