Monday

Walden Poster activity (click this link if you weren't here: Walden Poster)

HOMEWORK: Read Walden pages 1-53; 54-64; 206-216
HOMEWORK: Monday: All 25 quotes are due, handwritten with pages numbers. See me if you're reading it on Kindle.
Find three quotes by Thoreau to use for the following three writing assignments.
1. Journal: Write1/2 page explaining the point that you think Thoreau is making in one of his quotes?

2. HOMEWORK: Type a 1 page double-spaced response to one of Thoreau's quotes. What point do you think that he is making? To what extent do you agree?

3. WALDEN POSTER due December Monday 8th
Poster requirements
A. Choose a quote from Walden. Then take a photo that illustrates the idea in the quote. superimpose/paste the quote on the photo (see examples). No need to print in color. You may draw or paint your picture.
B. Type 3/4-1 page single-spaced explaining what the quote means AND how your picture illustrates that idea. For example, you will likely talk about the subject of the photo and what it, he, she, they are doing and how this relates to the idea of the quote. Sometimes students discuss lighting and other aspects of the photo, which can be very effective.
