First period worked on turning all the planning we’ve done for a memoir into a first draft. It’s to be completed by tomorrow.

Second and fourth periods went over two films to see how closely they follow the monomyth developed by Joseph Campbell. We’ll return to our myth — the Odyssey — tomorrow.

Sixth period did group work, looking for content gaps in our first drafts.

Seventh period completed work with sentence fragments.

Homework

• First period: complete first draft.
• Second and sixth periods: read “The Sirens” and “Scylla and Charybdis” for tomorrow.
• Sixth period: none (if first draft is complete).
• Seventh period:
• choose one of our four drafts for further development;
• re-read the draft;
• write five questions you would have if you were a stranger reading this draft.
