{NANOWRIMO} Just so parents are aware, students are working on a 10,000 word novel for National Novel Writing Month. They have each made a goal of at least 10,000 words to have completed by November 30. It is not assigned for homework, but may be worked on at home. IT IS FOR A GRADE…this project aligns with writing, typing, technology, and testing standards. The reason they need an email address, either their own or a parent’s, is for password creation purposes. thanks!
