Welcome back! I hope you all enjoyed your three day weekend...especially because of the killer weather!! Today was spent in the computer lab for work time on your drafts. We also took some time to complete some writing exercises in our notebooks (#8 - write a piece of dialogue using at least two voices, and #9 - What are your hopes/fears for our new President? What three major things do you think need to be done during his presidency? What are your thoughts about Obama? Do you like him? Dislike him? Why? Be specific!)By now, you should have a good idea of what three pieces you are going to work on for your portfolio. By Friday, you need to have drafts of two of your three total pieces (this is a graded assignment). You will be turning them in for my feedback, and they will be returned to you on Monday to work on. Choose the two drafts that you feel you need the most help with so that I can help you with them!
