Writing with Mr. Michaud

Today we are going to...
Continue working on your social studies story.  We will be focusing on adding details to what you have been working on and if your group  is ready, editing chapter 1. 

I will be checking to make sure your chapter 1:
1. Explains how all of your characters know each other
2. Describes your characters and setting
3. Relates to your green picture in some way
4. Is 2-4 paragraphs long

If you have all of these elements, then your group's author will do a self-edit on chapter 1 and the new chapter 2 author will complete a peer edit.  I will collect the self and peer editing sheets when they're complete.  Once that has been turned in, your group can begin chapter 2 using the blue picture
