Well, we’ve just completed our Cinderella mini unit. I love cheesy love stories! You know the ones…stories that have a happily ever after ending and it’s all wrapped up in a delicate blue box with a white ribbon on top (okay, so I’m talking about a package from Tiffany’s, but it still applies to here too!). Now, I know that I said that I wasn’t giving extra credit on the blog until next marking period, but this assignment will be due next marking period, so *technically* it’s a next marking period extra credit assignment. I want you to create your own Cinderella story. In order to get credit, you need to have a beginning, middle, and happy ending. Each section needs to be two paragraphs with 10 complete sentences in each paragraph. I won’t take off for improper paragraph structure since this is a creative writing assignment. The assignment needs to be typed, and have correct spelling and grammar. It needs to be submitted to me by the end of the school day on Friday, March 26th. Do not tell your peers about this extra credit. They should be checking the blog everyday to figure it out for themselves. I can’t wait to read your stories!!!
Happy Writing,
<3 Mrs. T…hompson

Just remember that it must be typed...my old eyes can only handle so much 7th grade writing skills in one year.

First, I need you to give me a typed copy for credit. Second, you can post it on your blog for others to comment on it, or I can post it on the main page here. If you can't print it, you can either save it on a flash key and I'll print it at school or you can email it to me directly from your email account and not the blog. That way I can print it out too. Mystical creatures and animals rock, just remember it has to be version of a Cinderella story. Also, I need all of the main components at once by the due date. If you want to give me more in pieces, I'd be more than thrilled to read and comment on them. If you do illustrations, the would be awesome, but obviously we would have to take pictures to post them on the blog. That might be a pain. Remember to poor-man's copyright your story if you're posting it anywhere on the internet.
