Monday: You will continue to read two hours by Friday. We'll have some time in class to complete this work. In addition, you should catch up/Revise journals. They are due Friday. Lastly, begin outline. Due block day.
Tuesday:
1. Finish reading and annotating or taking notes on one profile from the New Yorker:
Profile on Taylor Swift
Profile on Taylor Swift
Profile on Manny Ramirez
Profile on Barack Obama
Profile on J.K. Rowling
Think about what the writer is doing to portray the subject and, again, what "moves" the writer uses to move the story along. Where does it begin? How does the writer create suspense or tension? How does the writer incorporate "backstory" or history?
2. Outline due on block day.
Block day: Complete biography journals.
Friday: Read! Complete at least 500 words on your biography draft.
