Writers were given this video prompt to begin class.

We reviewed the audience for personal essays.

Some writers who had not yet had a chance to so so, shared their morbid fiction.

In pairs, students read and evaluated a variety of personal essays according to whether or not they met the criteria for college admissions audiences.

Students reported on their findings.

Homework:
One art teacher I know judges self-portraits by asking whether he would like to have dinner with the artist.

Read three (3) more of the essays. Then write one to two (1-2) pages explaining which author your would rather have dinner (or be friends) with. Due Monday.
