Each day you will find a daily prompt on the smart board. You are expected to enter the room quietly and log in to your computer. Then open Microsoft Word and open your daily prompt. Type and respond to the passage.

You will need to save as "Prompt Aug" or the current month.

You will be adding to the same document so you should never be starting with a blank document.

Each month we will change to a new word document.

You will be graded on participation and continue adding to your monthly daily prompts, not necessarily completing it. You are not responsible for finishing each day but you are free to go back and finish if you have time.
