Middle Ages Writing Assignment
http://www.somersetguide.co.uk/photos/images/glastonbury-tor.jpg
Today’s writing assignment derives inspiration from the Biography video we watched in class last week and the information from our text book. Your assignment is to write a “day in the life” or a journal entry from a character from the King Arthur story or from the text book. Remember that you are writing from the point of view of your character. You will be marked on ideas, content, spelling, grammar and paragraph structure. If you don’t finish your story today, you will have time to complete it and edit in the next class.
Here are some links to get you started on your research. I can’t wait to read your stories!
