Creative Writing is a class designed for all work to be done in class. If you are absent, it is your responsibility to check in what you missed and complete assignments on time. If you do not understand how to complete the assignment based on the instructions provided here, it is your responsibility to come in and get help before or after school or during lunch.
Please note, however, that a large portion of your final grade is not only class assignment completion but also attendance so that you can participate in the various workshop activities we do along with the assignments given.
Note that the due date given means that the assignment is due when class starts that day. Have a printed copy of your piece ready to go at the bell so that we can spend the class time work-shopping and sharing writing. Unless otherwise stated, an assignment is due at the start of class.
