- Writing and Editing Dialogue
- We read Tips for Editing Dialogue together (p. 37).
- I read the questions on the Dialogue Worksheet as a preview to the partner work.
- People paired up and spent fifteen minutes reading pages 38-41 to find answers for the Dialogue Worksheet.
- We got back together and checked the Dialogue Worksheet.
- I also talked about how "Words to Use Instead of Said" (p. 39) can be useful in writing, as long as people don't use an abundance of them all the time! :-)
Organization/Reflection
- We passed back papers and folders, and people read their comments, then logged in their pieces.
- The four seniors selected small sharing groups for tomorrow.

- We spent the last ten minutes reading each other's story and making ten comments on it.
Homework
