This morning, please take 10-15 minutes to prepare and send your 10-minute play script to Geva. The address is as follows:
You should have a TITLE PAGE with your name, address, phone #, school name, grade, and email address in the lower left or right hand corner. On your title page, please include your cast requirements (characters, and a short 1-sentence description of the character, if possible).
Please print out ONE copy of your play scripts for Ms. Perez and me. We'd like to read them and give you credit for writing!
Lab work: Please write between 5-10 Hint Fiction pieces (that's a total of 250 words, if you maxed it all out). You may select some of these stories from those you wrote in your journal or from the last few classes. Take the first period to write a few (after you've completed the play thing...) You will need these drafts before going on to the following steps:
If you finish early today or are waiting for your group members to finish up their scripts or writing hint fiction pieces, check out these websites!

Hint Fiction Bonanza!
Lab work: Please write between 5-10 Hint Fiction pieces (that's a total of 250 words, if you maxed it all out). You may select some of these stories from those you wrote in your journal or from the last few classes. Take the first period to write a few (after you've completed the play thing...) You will need these drafts before going on to the following steps:
- 1. Get together in the following groups: Group Z: Izzy, Saisha, Mitchell, Aleah Group Y: Tyshay, Tyshon, Austin, Jaymee, Yasmine; Group X: Jacob, Radezia, Grace, Karla, Justice.
For help, see my mock-up.
- Once in your groups, read your work together. Offer feedback to one another. Then together as a group, select the best 4 hint fiction pieces from each author.
- 2. Using the program PAGES, please complete the following assignment:
- From the TEMPLATES menu, choose CARDS and INVITATIONS under PAGE LAYOUT.
- Choose one of the POSTCARD options (Only!). Each author may choose his/her own template option.
- Each story you wrote will have a picture or graphic on the front side (one for each story) that appropriately depicts or goes with the theme or tone of your story. (No text is needed on the front of the card, so you can delete the text box. Click on it, then delete.) Find IMAGES from GOOGLE IMAGES or your own photography.
- On the BACK of the card (where the address information would normally go) please type your 25 word or less hint fiction story on the back. Be sure to include your title AND your name on each one. You do NOT need to include your address. Remove this text. You may change the FONT to something you like that is legible and appropriate for your design, but you should not have more than one card per story. Make sure each story is aligned with the right picture.
- When you have typed up all four stories on the template, check your grammar and spelling. Make sure there are no errors, then print out your work and hand in. DO NOT FOLD your paper.
If you finish early today or are waiting for your group members to finish up their scripts or writing hint fiction pieces, check out these websites!
