Tuesday October 22, 2013: Homework

Block A

Your character projects are due today! We are going to create Twitter Bios for them today in class. According to the New York Times, Twitter Bios are a "new postmodern art form." We will use words that we find in magazines to string together an unusual "found" bio to serve as an introduction to your project. Tonight, look for words that could work to describe your character. Look for images as well. Tomorrow, we will assemble all of the pieces and you will submit it all for credit! 

Block B

Today you turned in a rough draft of your Alexie essay. Hooray! I will be looking them over this afternoon and will have some feedback for you on Thursday. 
Tonight, read your independent reading book and write a quick journal response in your composition book to explore the following prompt:
  • I think...
  • I notice...
  • I wonder...

Block C

For Friday, read up to page 196 in True Diary. Locate three "signposts" in the reading and chart them on your bright yellow Signpost map.
