1. Welcome! August 23rd, 2017 Wednesday
Do Now
Get out your weekly Bell Ringer sheet and begin working on Wednesday’s assignment. Once the bell rings, you will have five minutes to discuss the prompt with your group. Make sure you stay on task! 
Remember: Do Now's are INDEPENDENT and QUIET exercises. Thank you 

3. Trickster Tales!
For the rest of class, your job is to finish writing your trickster tales!
Make sure you use your brainstorming sheet from Friday – there’s no sense in starting from scratch 
You rough draft should be 500 words minimum (one page typed)
Make sure you include dialogue – that’s the easiest way to make sure that you’re showing the story take place, not just summarizing it
Also be sure to check out the rubric from the front table – that’s what I’ll be using to grade your stories!
