Hey all, on Thursday, we’ll have some time to work on your upcoming revision (due April 16), so make sure you come to class with what you worked on.  Also, here is the comic we made in class (see the citations below!)

For Tuesday, April 16th, your second revision is due. Please see the guidelines under the “revisions” tab.

Also, City Tech Writer is accepting submissions until next Mon (April 15). Please submit your work!! This is our school’s literary magazine, and a great opportunity to see your work in print.

Experiment 3 is due Tuesday before class. Remember that this assignment should be Creative Non-Fiction OR Fiction inspired by something true.  It will be 2-4 pages long and, as you remember, you get credit just for turning it in! When you’re finished you can post it in Perusall. 

Here are the in-class writing assignments we did throughout this unit. You can use any of these as a starting point for this assignment:

1. A story about a time you wrote an essay
2. A story about a meal you loved (or hated! Food that influenced you)
3. The KWL+ essay: you researched something you care about and used it as a starting point for a creative work
4. The story of how your parents met.
5. The moment in history that inspired or affected you the most
6. An essay or story motivated by a weird fact— if it helps you, look at Joyas Voladoras for inspiration.

If you have questions, please email me at chall@citytech.cuny.edu.  I don’t always see those Perusall messages!
