12th Grade Literature - 2nd Period/Fall-2nd Period Assignments

Choose this poem creation, a paint poem (see Mrs. Hahn, and/or the gratitude journal (see Mrs. Hahn). Consider completing and sharing with someone else. :)

Look at each picture - number them 1-6 in order.
On a sheet of paper, make three columns: What do you see? What do you think it means? What questions do you have? Answer for each picture.

then, Complete the graphic organizer. 
Really put your thoughts into it - write more than just one word or a short phrase.

Read the attached story
Answer the three questions at the end
Then, complete the summary, author's purpose (WHY did she tell this story), and evidence that shows her purpose (2-3 quotes)

You can type the answers to the three questions below your graphic organizer. A copy has been made for each of you. Remember, NO CREDIT will be given for copied work.

Use the websites linked on the document to answer the questions listed on the document.

Prep these questions - independently - on the study guide. Reference stories from the unit as necessary (those are posted on previous posts in Google Classroom).

You have two activities attached to this assignment. Create a document to complete both.
1. There are 10 statements on the pdf. List each statement on your document. 
2. Write Agree or Disagree next to each statement and one sentence as to WHY
3. Pick three statements to explain in further detail. Make these the statements you feel most strongly about. Make sure these responses are FIVE sentences each at a minimum. If you want a high grade, go for more. These are opinions. No right or wrong answer. Just explain your position.

With your remaining time, investigate the website link and write down five things you learned about Charlotte Bronte and her family. I have added two links just in case one is blocked (internal screaming).
