Writing assignment: In class we worked on three stories: The Monkey's Paw, The Fog Horn, and Tell Tale Heart. The stories did not have a definitive ending, hence the purpose of the mystery. So, the writing assignment is to choose one of the stories and write a more traditional ending. Stories should be 1-2 written pages, use the same characters from the original story, use new vocabulary from the stories, use a simile or metaphor and be proofread and edited before passing the assignment in. Stories can be found online and the assignment is due this Thursday.
