Literacy month is coming up and to celebrate we are going to be collecting stories to share. This week we are focusing on stories from the adults in our lives. You will be interviewing an adult about his or her middle school experience. Make sure to ask follow up questions! This will make life much easier when you are drafting stories and have enough information to use. A list of nicknames, favorite or least favorite teachers doesn't make for good story fodder. You need detail, emotion, and humor to make this story come to life.
How to improve interview questions:
Bad example: What was your nickname?
Better example: What was your nickname? Why did people call you this?
Great example: What was your nickname? Can you share the story of how you got that name?
Homework: Using the interview questions from class, interview and adult about their middle school experience. Due Wednesday
