Classwork:

After the final Grammar Rock presentations, the class participated in a round robin writing exercise. Students were given the first line of a story and told to write for five minutes. After five minutes passed, the stories were exchanged with other classmates who continued writing in five minute increments. Stories were passed around four times before returning to the original author. When time allowed, we read stories in class. The stories were collected for a participation grade.

No homework.
