Suspenseful Stories Wrap Up

This week students will be wrapping up their suspenseful stories using feedback from peers as well as from myself.  Students are welcome to continue working on their stories at home too.  We will be getting a bit of a refresher course on dialogue to help everyone include it in their stories correctly.

MyAccess.com this week!

Students will be working on narratives that involve suspense and bold actions.  They will have the opportunity to work on MyAccess throughout the school day and they are invited to continue their work if they wish at home.  I'm looking forward to reading the stories these creative students develop.
