READING
This week we will be doing a personal narrative workshop. We will focus on the the traits of voice, conventions, and presentation. When a piece of writing has voice it has personality. We will be writing about an experience that matters to them, focus on details and choose words that will show clearly how they feel.
We will be focusing on using possessive nouns and reviewing verbs.
