In connection to the Walter Dean Myers Unit, we will be examining and analyzing themes in his literature.
Since Monday is a holiday, for next week Tuesday, please bring in an object that you hold dear to your heart. This could be anything (i.e. remote control, console for your Playstation). However, please note, that it should not be too personal that you could not talk about it with your class or too big that it could not fit into your book bag.
THIS IS NOT A WRITTEN ASSIGNMENT!!!!!!! I REPEAT!!!!!!!!! THIS IS NOT A WRITTEN ASSIGNMENT. YOU MUST VIDEO TAPE YOURSELF TALKING ABOUT YOUR FAVORITE AND DEAR OBJECT, SAVE IT ON YOUR FLASHDRIVE AND BE PREPARED TO SHOW IT IN CLASS ON THE SMART BOARD.
The questions you should have in mind as you prepare for your oral presentation are the following:
1. What is your favorite, dear and most prized possession that you are presenting?
2. Why is it so dear to you? What significance does it have to you, your culture, etc?
3. How is this object a reflection of your personality or who you are as a person?
4. How do you react when someone attempts to take your possesion or does not treat it the way you do?
5. How would your life be affected if you lost this object or did not have it around you?
