Expository Composition Period 5

1. During the two weeks of distance learning, we will cover the entire narrative unit in both editions of Patterns For College Writing.  We will read the readings/articles in the section Narration. Additionally, each of you will read one other article of the week for a total or two articles of the week per week. Additionally you will read 1/2 of your autobiography/memoir next week, and the other half of it the following week.  I am trying to decide on what type of journal or reading reaction log to post.
2. I will assign "write like" activities in which you mimic the writing style of your author.
3. I will also assign assignments on the craft of narration including: specificity and details; using dialogue; description; revising vague language for specific details.
4. Assignments will be due in Schoology at the assigned time. If they are not posted within a few hours of the deadline, the window will be locked and the assignment will not be accepted.
I do know I may have you use tech tools to demonstrate your reading and to engage with one another. I plan on using Padlet; Chatsy; Answergarden; Flipgrid and possibly others.
