Activities:
Day 1 - Students will come in to class with the story read and the vocabulary defined. We will discuss any comprehension problems or vocabulary issues during this class period. We will also complete a brief oral question round (about plot and characters) between instructor and students. For homework, the students will start the rough draft of their story ending.
Day 2 - Students will be paired up with a workshopping buddy. They will share what they have of their draft so far. They will use the rest of the class time to finish their drafts and get feedback from the instructor. Those who finish their first draft can begin correcting and typing their final draft.
