Double Entry Journal # 13

describe how and why you decided your WebQuest topic.  What makes your video on your Introduction page so interesting?  

I chose reading and researching short stories because I've always loved literature. I think it's important to urge students to write to spark their creativity. I read all four of the short stories in my WebQuest in high school and I loved them, so I just hope other high school students can appreciate them! My video is a rap by Flovabulary that lists the elements of a short story! Since my project is aimed towards high school juniors, I didn't want to spend a lot of time on the elements of a story, which they should have already learned, and the video is a great refresher! Also, it's so fun to listen to, it really gets you excited for the assignment.
