HW from 12/1/11

Due on 12/6/11:

* Reading for Reading Log: 30 minutes daily. Write it down on your Reading Log!

* If you haven't done it yet, be prepared to recite your memory verse anytime.

* Revise/correct the returned first draft (D1) of your first-person season essay.  D2 (along with D1 and all notes) will be turned in on Tuesday, 12/6.

* Plan for your 3-paragraph essay on things you appreciate about your parents by doing the following:

A--Brainstorm the many things you appreciate about your parents.  Make a list of as many as you can think of, without necessarily trying to "categorize" them. 

B--As you look over your completed list, think of which things you listed seem to "go together."  Choose the 3 categories you will use for your 3 paragraphs.

C--Choose the things from your brainstormed list that could go with each of those 3 categories.  Be sure you have listed at least three things for each category--that is, at least nine things total.

D--Write one or two good, descriptive sentences for each of these nine items.

You DO NOT need to go ahead and write the essay.  Just complete all of the above work for your essay.  You will turn in all of the above work (your brainstormed list, your arrangement of some of those items into the 3 categories, and your 9+ sentences) on Tuesday, 12/6.

If you DO want to go ahead and write the essay, that is fine.

D1 (and all notes) of the first person parent appreciation essay will be due on Thursday, 12/8.  It must fall between 250-300 words and be double-spaced in 12-point font.
