1. Create your final draft of your personal narrative for Thursday’s Publishing Party. There is a very specific way to format these: use “Georgia” font, 11 or 12 point, 1.5 or double spaced, .8” or 1” margins all around, 2 pages maximum. The heading should include the Title and the Author’s Name and NOTHING ELSE (not even “by” the author).
2. Bring in your winter independent reading books for a homework check.
3. Bring in a homemade gift for your secret gift exchange partner, marked with a TO but not with a FROM, and leave it on my desk Thursday morning.
4. Bring the item below for the Publishing Party, enough for about ten people.
