The beginning of class will be a quick chat and a five to ten minute writing warmup prompt to chase away those creative cobwebs. Students will be invited to share their writing with the class. We will then dive into that day's lesson. At the end of the lesson, I will assign the homework and the students have until the next class to submit their assignment in the classroom. If we have extra time, we will have free write time for students to get a head start on their writing assignment. All assignments that are turned in on time will be read and reviewed by me. I will provide my feedback and return it back to them.
