The document provides instructions for students to rewrite Chapter 12 or write Chapter 13 of the novel "On My Honor" with an alternate ending. Students are given a rubric to follow that assesses their rewritten chapter based on grammar, organization, word choice, accuracy to previous chapters, and clear main idea. A timeline is also provided for brainstorming, writing a rough draft by a certain date for peer review, incorporating feedback, and submitting a final copy.
