Sharing Activity #1/Review Writing Lesson
#8: Writing and Editing
Dialogue (Twenty-five-ish minutes)
Why Are We Doing
This Assignment?
1. …to get a bigger
audience for our work. (Eight
other people are doing to read it.)
2. …to learn more about
how to edit dialogue by actually
editing, rather than by
filling out a worksheet.
3. …to get a decent
grade on having your story correctly edited.
4. …to allow me more
time to read and comment on your Writing Experiment #10.
How Am I Grading
This?
1. Discuss the worksheet
here.
How to Do This
