The month of April (and a few days in May) will be devoted to making your own personal writing portfolio using prompts each day that we have class. Yes, this will be a lot of typing but the length of assignments will vary day to day so you can always go back and complete posts later in the week. (Just don't forget to go back!) This assignment will be worth the majority of your 4th quarter grade (25 points per post), for many of you, your last quarter as a High School Student "tear". It is important that you keep up each week so please try focus on finishing the daily assignment and then check past posts to make sure they are completed as well.
The purpose of a Personal Writing Portfolio is to focus on yourself as you hone in on your creative thinking skills and abilities. Many of the activities you will be doing are free writes and brainstorming work that ask you to delve deeper into yourself, your goals, your dreams, your personality. So, as you begin this journey making a Personal Writing Portfolio on your blog be creative, have high expectations, and write freely.
Every assignment will have a required title (this will make it easier for me to recognize and grade). The required title will be the same title that I give the post of instructions (excluding this post) Please title your blog posts as instructed in each topic post. The following is your first assignment:
Title: Prologue
Introduce yourself creatively to the reader. Capture the readers attention by being vibrant and descriptive. Tell the reader about your life, your hopes and aspirations for the future. Tell the reader about this assignment in your own words, what is its purpose, what is your goal while doing this assignment.
Word Requirement: 500 Words

This is an April Fool's Day joke, right? (Only joking... sort of.)
