Homework
1-2 hours per week. The student will be required to create an outline from a story, retell the story from the outline, write a rough draft, and complete a final typed paper of the story. Multiple stories will be read, outlined, and rewritten with stylistic techniques. 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 story.Assessment
