Recasting Part 4

Today, we will begin the /RecastReflection.
I will be looking for fully thought out answers to the questions listed on the assignment sheet and serious thought on the writing process that you have been utilizing in the past two weeks. Give me all you have on what you felt, thought, and did.

The reflection should be at least 500 words - use lists, use headers, use lines, and etc... Feel free to use any of the tools allowed in the wiki to make this reflection as organized and fully developed as possible.

The reflection will be due on Monday, February 7, at Midnight.

To help you stay close to the project and writing itself, quote directly from your new story as a way to give examples.

Recast Workshop Part2

  • Attendance
  • 5 minutes to log in and get situated
  • Add in the extra names of any who would like to be workshopped

On Friday we will be working on the 4th part of the recast project. At that time I will be assigning how many words I expect it to be and we will discuss the quality of answers I will be expecting for a passing grade.

/RecastTale Workshop

For today to be workshopped, you must have your rough draft of your fairy tale fully written in the class wiki.

  • Attendance
  • Reading of the Peer Review Guidelines
  • Take about 10 minutes to work on the /RecastTale and leave any questions in your wiki
  • Take about 10 minutes per workshopped person and hopefully go through at least 3 class member's tales.
  • Take the rest of class to work on the last version of your fairy tale. The finished tale should be revised, edited and ready for grading by Wednesday. Take very close attention to spelling, full sentences, the title, and grammar of your tale - these will be a part of your grade.
  • We will begin Part 4 on Wednesday.
