All writing prompts must be completed in your journals by the assigned dates.  You are responsible for completing these writing prompts on your own time at home or when you have down time in class.  The teacher will not read your journals, just check for completion of the week’s work. These writing prompts will also provide us with a great deal of source material for our short film and podcasts this spring.  The more work you put into your journals now, the more you will have to work with when it comes time to write for our movie and podcasts.

Writing prompts February 11 - 15.  100-word minimum.  You must complete 5 of the assigned prompts by Friday, 2/16/19.
