4. The more important things about Week Three were...
• Getting my presentation done
• Learning about Writing Test Writing and “test wiseness”
• That I can write about those little details in life that I never thought that deeply about before – my grandmother’s roasting oven, my mom’s little childhood table and chairs, finding out where stories come from.
