4) Short Story - Identities... use the Elements of Fiction handout...
5) A group "get" on the white board - present to all.
6) Homework - Personal Essay or Narrative: If figuring out who you are is necessary, then who do you think you are so far? What are your values? What are your goals? What really matters to you? 250 words minimum
OR
Describe what Fall makes you think of? What memories come back? What hopes, desires, feelings surface when the air becomes crisp and the leaves begin to turn?
