Today, spend the first 10 minutes of class posting a blog entry on your blog regarding the reading you have been doing with your chosen book. What do you think so far? How far have you read? What have you learned about writing through reading the novel? What questions do you have? Etc.
Then, gather with your reading group and chat about the book. Each reader should discuss the book. Create a survey with your group members. Find out how many people enjoy the book (write the number down), how many dislike the book or are having trouble understanding or relating to the book, and answer any questions that group members may have. Discuss for about 15 minutes. Then: go back to your portfolio preparation.
The portfolio is due on Friday.
This introductory creative writing course at the School of the Arts (Rochester, NY) will introduce students to such topics as acting, performance poetry, speech communication, oral interpretation, and writing for a public forum. Writing for Publication will provide students with an understanding of the publishing world, encourage frequent submissions to various publications & contests, and develop word processing and design skills.
