Announcements and Reminders:

Today’s Agenda: You will have a substitute teacher, since I will be with the Mock Trial Team at their competition. A Bevy of Prompts Today you are going to experience a variety of prompts. The substitute will give you five to ten minutes to work on each. You may complete the prompts in any order. Write each new prompt on the next page of your notebook. Do as much as you can in the time allotted for each, then be willing to move on to the next one. The substitute will give you instructions about how you will share each piece of writing. __________________________________ A Bevy of Prompts: April 3 -- Prompt 1 April 3 -- Prompt 2 April 3 -- Prompt 3 April 3 -- Prompt 4 April 3 -- Prompt 5 April 3 -- Prompt 6 April 3 -- Prompt 7 April 3 -- Prompt 8 April 3 -- Prompt 9 Sharing Before you share, tell the people you are sharing with which prompt you are responding to. 1: Use your appointment clocks and pair share. -- Use your two o'clock appointment.
