Due on 10/2/12:
* Reading for Reading Log: 30 minutes daily. (Reading Log is due, signed by parent, at the end of the month. This month it will be due on Tuesday, October 2, which is our next class.)
* File into your homework section: CW #3 (I graded it today but did not collect it) and the list of examples of figurative language from the poem. Feel free to modify, change, or add to your answers based on our discussion today in class. I will collect both from you on Tuesday.
* Look for and find one of the following (in print):
+ a description you like of a place, OR
+ an example each of both a simile and a metaphor.
Bring to class on Tuesday.
* Decide the place you would like to write about for your paper. Choose the one place you think you want to do, then choose two "back-up ideas" in case the one you think you want to write about doesn't work out.
* You do not need to begin the paper. I want to have time to give you a few more guidelines before you begin. Just send me an email listing those three place ideas, with your first choice starred.
* Write two sentences (good ones, according to our definition): one containing simile and one containing metaphor. Please type those two sentences into a word processing document and send it to me as an attachment. Format the document as follows:
+ standard 1-inch margins
+ 12-point font (Times New Roman or Arial)
+ a footer with an automatic page number (in the middle of the bottom of the page)
+ a header with your name and the name of the assignment (in the upper right hand corner of the page
NOTE: If you do not know how to do any of these things, ask your parents or an older sibling for help. If none of them know how to do it, either, then feel free to give me a call for help. Again, this should be sent as an attachment. Do NOT type your sentences directly into the email.
