I just wanted to apologize and thank everyone for the patience while I got the sloppy copies back to the students.  Unfortunately, my son was sick and I had to stay home with him.  I was able to conference today with all the students who turned in their sloppy copies so far.  I discussed with them the changes that needed to be made and they all seemed to understand but please send me an email if you have any questions.  Below you will find some bulleted points that help outline some corrections that I made on many of the student's papers.

• Ingredients section is not for actual ingredients.  Think of it like ingredients for a book.  It needs to include Character, Setting, Plot, Problem and Solution.
• Please list the ingredients on the side of the box.    

Characters:
Setting:
Plot:
Problem:
Solution:

• Nutritional Information: Pick 3 characters and write a sentence about each explaining their importance in the book.  You can simply list these characters as well.
• Review: This is the students opinion of the book.  Did you like the book? Why? Give examples from the book to support why you did or didn't like the book? Would you recommend this book to a friend?

Bring a snack tomorrow.  We are having lunch a bit later because the students are taking their star test.  I told the students that they can bring a small, neat, low maintenance snack to eat in the classroom before the test.
