Quizlet: Narrative Elements and Literary Devices List

Use the LEARN function.

Review “The Island” feedback. 
At your tables, share responses. Revise your own work. 

Each table will share one response. 

Submit your revised work on “The Island”. Add the word FINAL when submitting so I know that it’s your finished work. Submit the hard copy of the story so I can see your annotations on the page. 

While you work on “The Island”, I will hold a few writing conferences.
