Today students handed in portfolios (make sure you do something asap if this is not the case for you) today and we moved on to consider: voice, pictures, and flow in writing. Voice is the unique words that writers choose that make their writing sound like 'them', pictures are the sensory images that make writing interesting and vivid, and flow is how a writer moves from idea to idea.
I read a piece about my journey as a reader and writer and asked students to write on the same topic with voice, pictures, and flow in mind. I am _________, the reader/writer drafts are due on Tuesday Sept 25th - we will workshop these together and get drafts ready for good copy status.
Homework: READ, finish draft of I am ___________, the reader/writer.
