Hello Rainbow Peppers, I just wanted to clarify something for the homework - specifically question number four. The question asks you to write out a favorite scene from your book. This means that instead of just describing the scene you are writing down exactly what it says in the book. An example I gave was this scene from Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters - We were crouching behind a tree, staring at the donut shop in the middle of the woods. It looked brand new, with brightly lit windows, a parking area, and a little road leading off into the forest, but there was nothing else around, and no cars parked in the lot. We could see one employee reading a magazine, in huge black letters that even I could read, it said: MONSTER DONUT A cartoon ogre was taking a bite out of the O in MONSTER. The place smelled good, like fresh-baked chocolate donuts. "This shouldn't be here," Annabeth whispered. "It's wrong." "What?" I asked. "It's a donut shop." "Shhh!" "Why are we whispering? Tyson went in and bought a dozen. Nothing happened to him." "He's a monster." "Aw, c'mon, Annabeth. Monster Donut doesn't mean monsters! It's a chain. We've got them in New York." This actually isn't even the entire scene, but you get the idea. For the purpose of the project we are going to be starting, the more writing the better, but we'll cross that bridge when we get there. Anyway, it would be REALLY helpful if you had a copy of your book with you when we get back to school. Let me know if you don't think you can get a copy of the book and we'll work something out. In other news, here are some pictures from exhibition that I thought I would share with you all. Seriously, that exhibition was awesome and I'm sorry we didn't get to do recognitions because you were all SO amazing - I am constantly blown away by the passion and dedication you put into your school work! |
