Memoir Due dates

For the memoir you are reading on your own, you need to write four journals/posts while you are reading and then one last journal as a reflection on the entire book (a total of 5 journals). Each journal should be at least one page long.

Think about the writer's craft. You may want to write about:
  • literary devices the author uses
  • style elements
  • affect the writing has on you
  • favorite passages and explain why they are your favorite passages

Due dates:
  • 1st post due Friday, February 6th.
  • 2nd post due Wednesday, February 11th.
  • 3rd post due Tuesday, February 17th.
  • 4th post due Thursday, February 19th.
  • Final reflection on entire book due Tuesday, February 24th.

    hi ms. peifer! when you say that "Each journal should be at least one page long," did you mean typed or hand written? or does it not matter?! =D

    It depends on one's handwriting I suppose as well or how wide the lines are on your page. Really, I want to make sure each reaction is thorough and thoughtful and well-written. Use the "at least one page" as a guideline.
