ENGLISH 9: Short Story Writing Part 5

Unit: Creative Writing ("How do our decisions affect ourselves and others?") - Short Story Writing

• Students use the Short Story Questionnaire found in their "Short Story Writing" package to review and reflect on their own story.  What changes do you need to make?  Take a minute and look at the BC Performance Standards Rubric again (also in the package).  Have a classmate read your story and answer the same questions.  Consider having them "assess" your work using the BC Performance Standards in your booklet.
• Students use the rest of the class time to finish writing their stories.
• Short Story due February 2nd.  Be sure to include: 1.) Published copy with self-assessment, 2.) Revision and 3.) Draft.
