If you are having trouble signing in to Perusall or Open Lab, talk to me ASAP!!!

  1. Read and Annotate: “How to Read Like a Writer” by Mike Bunn: On perusall.com, read “How to Read Like a Writer.” (under assignments) please write at least 3-4 annotations (comments) of your own—just things that stand out to you—that you agree with, disagree with, are confused by, or would like to do in your own reading or writing. Feel free to also respond to what your peers have written—respectfully, of course.
  2. Write:  On Open Lab, write a post of at least 300 words discussing the following questions. You can also post the picture of your notes from the reading in this same post:
    • In his article, Mike Bunn writes “You are already an author.” He’s talking to What do you think he means by this? What are some of the things you write already?  (Hint: “Nothing” is not an acceptable answer.) Think of all of the ways you already use words in your everyday life.  That’s authorship! How will that existing expertise help you in your college reading and writing career?
    • Was there anything you noticed in Bunn’s article that you would like to try to do in your own writing? What, in particular? Please be specific!
