Writing--October HW MENU

Writing Rocks! (Due Wed-nes-days)


**After reading for at least 30 minutes, create a bookmark to show specifically what you read about. Portray your visual snapshot (drawing) on construction paper. Include Book Title, please. Chessa (sheasc) inspired this idea.

**Interview with a vampire, goblin or a zombie. You Must make your audience believe that the interview really took place. Where will the interview be held? What time of day? Tell us all the gory details like what he or she is wearing, what does their “body language” tell you? If your reader is convinced then you must try and believe it yourself, right? Madison’s (idnosma’s) HW idea helped create this menu item.


**Create an advertisement. *Think back to the “Don’t Buy it” activity done in class* Write about the following: 1-What are you selling? 2-Why are you selling it? 3- If you like the item, how can you convince others to love it? 4-What strategies will you use to best persuade your audience they really need to spend money on what you are selling? After thinking deeply about this process, create your ad using poster board, construction or butcher-block paper in hall.

**Choice** Make up your own quality writing assignment. After your masterpiece is complete, self assess yourself. If not sure it will meet 6th grade standards check with me, before it’s too late!**
