After devotional text and prayer, Mr. Stone shared from his experiences at creative writing workshops and discussed the importance of providing both praise and suggestions to a fellow writer's work.
Students used Mr. Stone's flash fiction grading rubric and the tips from the last class period's video to guide them in their critique.
Students needed to get three other students to critique their piece of flash fiction. Each peer critic needed to provide three specific praises and three suggestions for improving the piece. Each critic was to write in a different color.
Homework: Revise rough draft of flash fiction piece using peer critics advice. (Remember that not all advice should be taken. Ultimately the quality of the writing is determined by the writer's choices.)
Do not forget to bring to the next class your rough draft with critics' marks and signatures for credit.
