Fall Narrative Gallery

Andreas' Spooky Settings

Photographer Andreas S. lives in Norway, and travels around Europe taking photographs of derelict places where people once lived and worked.  Setting is so important in narratives, so this week's morning messages feature images of places begging for stories to be told.  Click the photo above, or here for more haunting photos.

Writer's Workshop, Week 9

October begins with the quarter one writing assessment, when the students are given a prompt to write about.  Time is allotted to brainstorm, prewrite, draft, edit/revise, publish and proofread.  Students who take their time and use the strategies we practice in class score the highest.
