2. Work on Rattlebone Stories for completion at end of week
3. New Writing Project:
The Qualities
Create two "quality" personifications similar to the ones that Ruth Gendler has written.
Select an emotion and give it the qualities of a human being--personification! How does this emotion act, "feel", live? Who are friends of this emotion? What does this emotion look like physically (if he or she were a person)? Use vivid DESCRIPTION to PERSONIFY this emotion.
Those of you who would like to can also draw a picture of your "character" and we will try to publish a class book of "The Qualities" at the end of the marking period
4. SOKOL entries:
Select a poem and/or short story for SOKOL. Before you submit it, proofread and revise it! Check with Ms. Gamzon if you have questions.
