Today's lesson was about redrafting our stories to bring out their meaning. So perhaps you are writing a story about a time when you went on Thunder Mountain at Disney World....your story begins with the plane ride, then seeing the hotel for the first time, maybe the pool, the next day you go to the magic kingdom and go on a bunch of rides, finally you go to Thunder Mountain and are so scared, but you do it and the ride is awesome. Instead of giving a recap that basically reads like a list, you may decide that the real story is about overcoming your fear of heights....ad you can redraft your story beginning it right with waiting in line for the ride. Students today re-read their drafts from yesterday and then tried to decide what their story was really about....and then they wrote a new version on the story.
