new paper!

Today in class we continued to talk about the "what they carried" poem but took it one step farther. We did a hands on activity where we took inventory of our own items we were carrying at that very moment. From the clothes you were wearing to the deepest corner of your backpack, we listed on a piece of paper what was there. Recording took alot of time out of class. After the last person had finished Mr. laz told us the second part of the assignment. After looking at everything that you carry you must pick 1 to 3 things that say something about you. Why are you carrying those objects, what do they tell about who you are. After you have decided on the objects of your choice you have to write a paper about those choices. Write a paper about the things you carry and why you carry them. Pick the objects that mean the most to you and that really do mean something to you and explain it.

We also spent time to discuss the up coming last sign ups for the Dance-a-thon. which helps a local charity so it would be a good thing to get the word out to people around school.
