Objective: To work with 2 editing partners on perfecting our rough drafts of an irony open response. One partner will focus on correcting conventions while the other will hone in on word choice.
Agenda:
Phase One
1) Tear It Up! Peer Edit Sheet - Use the left side of the page to do a self edit. Someone then needs to complete the right side of the page as your peer editor, focusing on writing conventions.
Phase Two
2) Pass your edit sheet and open response to a second member of your editing team to edit for WORD CHOICE only. Zero in on weak words that could be substituted with colorful, sparkly words!! You, as the editor, can leave word suggestions OR simply make note to your writer that they need to revisit a word(s) in their paragraph.
Homework:
Final typed/written Irony Open Response is DUE MONDAY at the start of class.
Typed - double spaced, heading, font size 12
Written - skip lines, heading, written in pen.
