  • Your goal is to fill out this SOAPSTone Form with a partner, investigating the elements of Kate Chopin's "The Story of an Hour" 
  • If you already finished, help someone who wants help.
3. Formative
  • If you did not finish your Formative reading of the text yesterday (where you answered questions along the way) please finish. 
4. Writing Collaboratively 
  • We are going to experience collaborative writing today.
  • We are moving the chairs into a big circle.
  • All you need to take with you is your notebook and a writing utensil.
5. Writing Contest 
  • Your job is to rewrite the ending of "The Story of an Hour" 
  • There is a list of potential alternate endings brainstormed by your classmates in 1st and 3rd period that you can use for inspiration.
  • You can handwrite if you want, but eventually your work has to go on the Google Doc in Google Classroom. 
  • At the end of the period, you will SUBMIT your writing to THIS SUBMISSION FORM.

Reminders: 
  • Tomorrow is NEON DAY. We will also be on Sports Day schedule so we get a longer lunch. Come ready to play!
