Today we focused on "Author's Perspective" and how that affects a narrative piece. Students read and listened to several examples and determined if the author slipped out of their perspective or stayed true to it. Groups looked at a student example and decided where the student could make revisions on their perspective. Some brave souls shared their "life lesson" story they wrote last night; thank you for great listening moments full of details and emotion.
H/W:
- Choose one story (out of your three) in which you have the most interest. Read it, and determine where you lose perspective. Are you writing about what someone else was thinking? Did you really know what they were thinking at the time? Revise this part of your paper by rewriting it on a different piece of paper and taping it above the original writing.
- Bring a colored pen to class tomorrow - any color other than blue or black, please
- IMC is tomorrow - remember to bring your book if you are ready to return it
See you tomorrow!
