Due on Tuesday, 1/31/17
1) Using the sample model essay we went over in class today, and the Bible verse you chose—or another, if you change your mind—write a Bible Verse Opening Essay. (Hint: that is the title of this assignment for your header!)
2) Use standard form for our typed compositions, but make it 1.5 spacing instead of double spacing. You are shooting for at least 200 words, although it can be a bit longer if you like. (Do not exceed one typewritten page with these formatting guidelines.)
3) Proofread your essay. When you are confident it is as error-free as you can make it, save it and print a beautiful copy to bring to class on Tuesday.
4) Continue reading in The Extraordinary Ordinary Life of Mark Rodriguez. I will update the specific pages you should read as soon as I get home and can consult my copy of the book. (I am currently updating the blog from a restaurant where I'm sitting while I wait for my car to be ready to be picked up!)
5) NOTE: The second half of your January Reading Log will be due, signed by a parent, on Tuesday. (This is different than what the blog has said over the past few days.)
6) Bring your Gratitude Journal to class on Tuesday. I will give you credit for the daily thankfulness entries you have been making.
+ Write in your Gratitude Journal, aiming for three things but listing at least one thing you are thankful for daily. When you have done so, place a check mark in the top corner of your Reading Log calendar for that day.

Also, daily:
+ Read your (approved) Reading Log book for pleasure, aiming for at least 30 minutes daily. Mark the number of minutes on your Reading Log (in multiples of five, rounded down) as you go along.
+ Write in your Gratitude Journal, aiming for three things but listing at least one thing you are thankful for daily. When you have done so, place a check mark in the top corner of your Reading Log calendar for that day.
