HW from 1/10/13

Due on 1/15/13:

*Reread the start of the David story from first to last.  Be thinking about what you want your continuation of the plot to be.

* Brainstorm at least five reasonable possibilities of what you think the thing in his pocket could be.  (Remember, you are continuing the story, so it is whatever you say it is!)

* Brainstorm at least three different possible scenarios about what is going on in the story.  In each of the three scenarios (label each well) indicate (1) what he's involved in, (2)who the people or "creatures" are, (3) what his note said, and (4) what his plan is.  
NOTE: These will be three totally different ideas about what's going on in the story.

* Look up the following literary terms (page numbers from your Writer's Inc. book are included) and copy the definition for each onto a piece of paper:
+ plot - p.239
+ exposition - p.235
+ rising action - p.240
+ climax - p.234
+ falling action - p.235
+ resolution/denouement - p.234, p.240

* Decide if you and/or your family would like to take up the challenge to join my family in memorizing Romans 12--yes, the entire chapter--between now and the end of the quarter (January 17).  I will give you and extra 100 test grade when I average grades if you do so.

ALSO:
* Reading for Reading Log: 30 minutes daily. (Reading Log is usually due, signed by parent, at the end of the month.  This month it will be due on Thursday, January 31.)
