Period 6:
Goal: Writing the first draft of your memoir.

Writing Small: 
A short memoir should be about a single incident. 
The focus should be on one event. 
You can include a before and after, but keep the focus on the main event. 
These are the examples I showed you yesterday.

Writing prompt:
The Google Doc for you to write your memoir has already been created for you in Google Classroom. 

Write a complete draft, beginning, middle, and end. If you finish early go back through your writing and continue adding details, dialog, and descriptions. 

Homework: 
Finish your draft. It does not need to be perfect (yet). It does need to be the whole story. 
If you need more time you can have it, but finish your complete draft by Friday. 
Read: You should be near completion of your book. Your book project is due 10/07/19.(That's sooner than you think.)
