The short story writing process is the focus of this unit, and as such the process is worth more points overall than the final product. It will be worth 50 points, and counts as one half of the test grade for this unit. See the document below for details on how the points are distributed, and for instructions on what is required.

Tomorrow at the beginning of the class period, I will be checking on your story ideas. You should have your story ideas written up and ready to make into storyboards.
Your brainstorming notes may be in the following formats:
1. The TXTéamelo worksheet, with ¿Quién? ¿Qué? ¿Cuándo? ¿Dónde? ¿Por qué? ¿Cómo? questions, and an overall summary.
2. A "mind map" or "word web" of ideas
3. Your own format of notes and ideas showing what you have brainstormed
You can choose which format works best for you, any of the three options above will get you the 5 points, as long as you can show that you have taken the time to think through your ideas.
