Creative Writing Assessment

Monday 22/8/16

I am very impressed by the effort you have all put into your own piece of creative writing based the mentor text 'Driftwood Days' by Charlotte Williams. All that remains is to give your work the final proof read seeing if you can correct any errors in basic punctuation and spelling.
Crafting your work is where you critically look at what you have done, and see if you can make any improvements in word choices or using a carefully chosen language feature that will add impact to your work. I would recommend that you do this.

Today we are going to look at the creative writing assessment task and discuss options and choices about it.  You will consider the work you have already completed in class, and the work that we will be doing this week. Your assessment is due in this Friday 26/8/16.
