Welcome to Creative Writing! I am excited about our semester together!   Today we will learn a little about the class (I will try not to be BORING)!  We will get to know each other and create Selfies and Text Messages about ourselves. We will use THIS template for your selfie picture.  You will write a text message answering one or more of the following questions: What did you NOT do this summer? Best memory of the summer. Best thing you ate this summer. Funniest thing that happened this summer. Person you spent a lot of time with this summer. Something educational you did this summer. Somewhere you traveled or went this summer. If you have another idea, just ask! We will display these on our bulletin board to learn more about each other! After that, we will play a few games to get us up and moving around! TO DO Please bring a pair of school scissors tomorrow, as well as a glue stick!
