  • Sit with your partner from yesterday and take out your notes
  • Review your notes to make sure you have at least 1-2 observations for each of the 10 stops at Ellis Island
  • Create a new Google Doc TITLE IT- ELLIS ISLAND and make sure you move it to the folder you shared with me
  • Work on drafting your news story, focusing on how you are going to begin it.  Try to capture the who, what,where, when and why in the first couple sentences.  
  • Focus on writing in the third person and making each of your scenes stand out
