Today we will be in the Library (back middle section), using the laptops to work on our 101 Things I am Thankful For piece. The Assignment is on Google Classroom.
Here are the requirements:
- Come up with a title besides “101 Things I am Thankful For.”
For example: “101 Little Things in Life,” “101 Excuses to Wake Up Early,” “Why I Love Life.” - This assignment is about details. Don’t list things; write the details about the things you’re thankful for.
For Example: Don’t write “My dog.” Instead, write “Getting licked on my face by my dog when I get home from school.” “When my dog runs to fetch the ball.” - Break your poem into 4 stanzas of 25 lines, and 1 stanza of just 1 line. The 1-line stanza should be something really important.
- Do not number your lines!
