Do-Now: Bucket List: Make a list of at least TEN things you want to do before you die.
Today:
1)Pass-it-Around: Each of you will start a story with the line "It was a wrong number that started it, the telephone ringing three times in the dead of night." You will write for THREE minutes. Next, you will pass your story to the person behind you who will read your story and have THREE minutes to add to it. The story will continue to be passed until both sides of the paper are full. Finally, select stories will be read out loud in class.
2)Dead Man's Pockets:A man has been found dead with TEN items in his pockets. Using these items for inspiration, write a short story about how the man died. Explain where he was and what he was doing when he died. You may also choose to tell what the man was doing in the hours/days leading up to his death. Finally, you may tell where his body was found, who found his body, and what condition his body was in (if you wish to get into THAT much detail.) Be sure to include at least FIVE of the items in your story.
Homework: Finish "Dead Man's Pockets" story
