Adventure Story: Final Draft due tomorrow 4/1
I loved reading all of your rough drafts! They were awesome! I've proofread and added comments on your rough drafts. Please rewrite your final drafts and please fix anything that needs to be fixed or add whatever I might have told you to add.
If you typed your document, I was able to write comments directly on the doc. If you handwrote it, I wrote comments in the comment section on the right.
Then, draw a "scene" from your adventure story. This may be from whatever part of the story you wish! The picture needs to be extremely detailed and colorful!
Once you are done with both, turn it into google classroom.
This isn't due until tomorrow!
Read for 30 minutes and complete a reading journal entry. I will be checking them on Friday so you will have to turn in 4 entries into google classroom by then. You may write them all on one google doc or write them down separately. Don't forget to use 7up sentences and to date EACH one of them
