Final copies can be sent to me via email: willarda@msd321.com if you don't want to print them.
This month their writing prompt is: "I was home alone on Halloween night, My parents said I was too old to go trick-or-treating, so they stuck me with handing out the candy.

This assignment is due October 24, 2013. They are to hand write at least the front page of their paper that has the prompt on it, if they skip lines they need to fill the front and back. If you have any questions feel free to email me!
Thanks!
Mrs. Willard
