Copy the definition of memoir into your notes:
A memoir is a form of nonfiction in which the writer recalls significant events and people in his or her life. NOT HIS/HER WHOLE LIFE STORY--THAT WOULD BE AUTOBIOGRAPHY.
Homework:
In class we talked about the effect of setting on the characters. Think about the memoir you will be writing. Now, describe two of the settings where your memoir will take place. Give me a vivid description of what each one: looks like, sounds like, smells like, tastes like?, feels like, and the effect that it had on you. (So, 2 settings, two descriptions, two effects)
