Writing the Personal Essay
Great video to remind you of all the critical components of an excellent narrative. Enjoy!
Remember your (not so rough) rough draft is due next class.
Here is a link to MLA formatting, just in case you plan to type your rough draft. It can TOTALLY be hand-written, but sometimes people work best writing at a computer. Might as well format the essay correctly...follow the directions to make a copy of this page and it will set it up for you to type into. Pretty sweet deal! :)

"Flowers for Algernon"
After break, we're jumping into the next story of our Risk-taker Unit--"Flowers for Algnernon" by Daniel Keyes. We will be completing a web quest to go along with the pre-/during/post- reading of the novella. At the top of this page you can access the web quest site. There is a packet of reflective work that needs to be completed. This can be done online or on paper. Up to the student. I've attached the packet link below.

Language Arts Updates
Most students are working on their Risk-taker Narrative "not-so-rough" rough draft which is due at the end of the week. When we return from break, students will be ready to move on to the final MLA format draft of their essays. Make sure you are staying on track to turn in your Writing Project in a timely fashion. Thanks!
