Journal writing assigment from Tuesday is due no later than tomorrow ... the specifics are below (keep in mind, this assignment is a Minor/Quiz grade ... 300-400 words
Pre-Writing ...
Pretend that you are an observer in our school. If you were
watching the "parade" of students who make their way down our
corridors each day, what categories of students would you notice? List at least
4 of them ... and eliminate the category into which you would most likely place
yourself.
Journal ...
Using one of the remaining categories, create a character
that represents one of the "types" -- how do they walk? Talk? How do
they dress? How do they style their hair? What do they talk about? What activities
might they participate in...or not? Be creative .. have some fun with it .. but
stay true to who your created character would most likely be. Focus on their
strengths (if they have any) and on their weaknesses (if they have any).
