1-2 hours per week. Students will be required to complete unfinished class assignments for homework. Multiple stories will be read, outlined, and rewritten with stylistic techniques. The final assignment must be typed double spaced Times New Roman #12 font. The amount of time spent writing and rewriting a story will depend on the student. However, I estimate 1-2 hours a week working on a composition. Assignments are to be emailed to the teacher 2 days before the next class by 5pm CST. LATE ASSIGNMENTS WIL NOT BE EVALUATED. **The student may require access to a printer.Assessment
Assessment of student’s assignments will consist of randomly selecting compositions which will be reviewed by the teacher. The IEW composition checklist and/or six trait assessment for compositions will be utilized to evaluate student selected compositions. Letter grades will be provided for compositions selected for evaluation.Letter Grade
