Monday- Read out Loud, Caught Ya, share three introductions and pick the best one to start writing your myth with. Make sure rough draft has your exciting intro. and setting included from pre-writing. Also, make sure myth has dialogue, paragraphs, and a good plot line.

Tuesday- Share good news, practice editing and revisions with "Scared Nutty", go through your rough draft and pick a spot to "explode a moment" and elaborate on it. Also check your rough draft for word choice. If done, silent read.
