Miss Rankin’s Writing

Filed under: Announcements — missrankin at 11:55 am on Wednesday, October 24, 2007

The main page of this site is mainly for assignments and announcements, but it’s only fair that I post my writing too!

So…. You can get to my writing if you look under “Pages” (in the upper right corner).

Your pages are looking pretty good, I can’t wait to read your writing!

Grading for the blogs:

I’m looking to see FIVE entries that are some form of creative writing (poetry, prose, essays, etc.) by the end of the six-weeks.  An entry must have at least 10 lines (or 150 words) to count.  Longer essays will count for two entries, shorter entries will count for half of a post.
