"PUNK, YOU ATE IT!"

Dialogue is a clear change between multiple characters
To write well you need to be able to punctuate it. Make sure you have reviewed the "Commas" slideshow in the class folder, under Grammar. Take a moment to do the work sheet and then check your answers against the one posted in the same folder. If you need a review, the "Dialogue" slideshow is also in the grammar folder.

The next task is to experiment a bit with writing dialogue. We will take some time to interact with partners over the Google Drive to co-author a series of direct speech. Then the next assignment will be a SHORT piece of authentic sounding, perfectly punctuated dialogue.

When you're ready, check the Dialogue Story Starters in the Assignment #2 folder. Let's aim to have a rough draft of this done by the end of this week.
