Personal Narrative: Due Date Next Week!

Next week is a busy one!

We have the interval test (a writing prompt) on Tuesday and Wednesday, and your personal narratives are due Thursday the 10th (A classes) and Friday the 11th (B classes). You will be given 1-4 points on the following criteria:

Sentence Length
Rhythm and Flow
Sentence Structure
Grammar and Spelling
Capitalization and Punctuation
Word Choice
Recognition of Reader (anticipating questions and answering them)
Commitment (making the reader understand why this was important- why should they keep reading?)
Point of view (using 1st person, "I")
Dialogue (conversation, quotes)
= 40 points

You will earn 0-10 points based on the effort you've shown working on your narrative. This includes time management and participating in all steps of the writing process.

This will give you a score out of 50. Double that and it becomes your grade (out of 100).

I am excited to read your stories!
