HOMEWORK: Reading logs for the marking period are due Tuesday.

The next writing project will involve interviewing an elder, at least 2 generations older. Begin thinking about who you will interview.  Write some questions that will encourage your subject to talk about memories from their past; cultural traditions, anecdotes of vivid incidents that you will record in a written memoir.  Details are forthcoming.
