Since we are beginning our new unit on Walter Dean Myers next week, to introduce you to his works you will do a mini research about his life and the books he has written. This assignment is to have a proper heading, handwritten on loose leaf and you must skip a line for editing purposes.
Please answer the following questions in ESSAY FORMAT ONLY:
1. What challenges did Walter Dean Myers experience growing up? (i.e. school life, at home, etc.) Why? How did he overcome them?
2. What was Walter Dean Myers motivation to write the type of stories, tales and poems he published? (list some books, poetry, etc. as evidence to support your answer)
3. Based on your research, what types of life lessons do you think you will read about in Walter Dean Myers books? Why? What do you think you will learn from these lessons and how can you apply them to your life?
ALTHOUGH THIS IS RESEARCH, PLEASE REFRAIN FROM PLAIGIARISM (I.E. COPYING WORD FOR WORD FROM A RESOURCE YOU DID NOT GIVE PROPER CREDIT TO IN YOUR ESSAY). IT IS ILLEGAL AND IT IS AGAINST THE SCHOOL'S DISCIPLINE CODE BOOK'S RULES AND REGULATIONS. YOU WILL BE WRITTEN UP AND SUFFER CONSEQUENCES IF THIS OCCURS!
Class 8-421, please remember to write the reflection essay about your first ABrT class with Ms. Jenna. She wants it Monday morning!!!
