 * __My Story __**

TASK: I was to create an organized piece of writing that tells my story. My story is made up of details and memories that construct who I am.

INTENT: Everyone’s story begins the same way but from that moment on our “stories” become unique. Many people and many events are a part of our stories. The purpose of this assignment was for me to tell my story focusing on key events, people, and experiences that helped shape my story.

CRITERIA: My final piece has three paragraphs and a reflection: a) How my story began (5 marks) b) A specific memory or event that had a meaningful impact (5 marks) c) My future self – Who do I see? What goals do I want to attain? (5 marks) d) Reflection on my final piece of writing (5 marks)




 * __Word of the Day __**

TASK: Each day we were given a word and its definition. We then had to write the word in a sentence that showed we understood the meaning of the word.

INTENT: The purpose for learning a new word each day is to enrich our vocabulary in our own writing and expand our knowledge of the English language.

CRITERIA: We were expected to:


 * Keep our notebook up-to-date
 * Share our sentences with the class
 * Use the word in a context related to our subject areas




 * __<span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Tahoma','sans-serif'; font-size: 17.3333px;">Thank you Ma'am __**

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Tahoma','sans-serif'; font-size: 17.3333px;">We read the short story, “Thank you, Ma’am” by Langston Hughes. This story shows the consequences a young thief faces after attempting to steal a strong, yet compassionate, victim’s purse. Rather than punish the young thief, Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones empathizes with him and takes him into her home for a hot meal. She teaches him a valuable life lesson.

 * **<span style="font-family: 'Tahoma','sans-serif'; font-size: 17.3333px;">You are the Author **

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Tahoma','sans-serif'; font-size: 17.3333px;">Throughout the novel, the chapters were only labelled with a number. I took on the role of being the author and I came up with chapter titles that I thought described the events of that chapter. I then summarized the chapter with 3 points of information.

 * **<span style="font-family: 'Tahoma','sans-serif'; font-size: 17.3333px;">Simile cards **

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Tahoma','sans-serif'; font-size: 17.3333px;">We learned that a simile is a figure of speech that uses the words “like” or “as” to compare two different things. The novel had many examples of similes and as we read we had to identify, record, and explain the similes. Once we had a large selection of similes, we created a simile card for a comparison of our choice. We had to explain the simile and draw an illustration that represented both parts of the comparison.

There are many quotable passages in the novel. We had to identify important quotes and explain why they were significant. After reading chapter 7 we wrote a quiz where we had to respond critically to certain passages. After the quizzes were marked, we then had to go back to our quiz and make corrections to our answers.
