Two Prompts for John Gardner's GRENDEL Chapters 1-6
Teaching Level:
High School
After reading Chapters 1-6 of GRENDEL, half of the class is assigned Prompt A, the other Prompt B. I have students write an in-class essay on one day (45 minutes), take them home to edit and type, and return with the original and edited version the next time the class meets. (I teach on a modified block schedule). I collect the edited version at the beginning of class, allowing them to keep the original which they use during class for a seminar. They take notes on the original writing, adding comments, textual points, etc., and keep them for the final writing assessment.
