JOURNAL TOPIC:
(today's topic is inspired by yesterday's classes & guest-written by Ms. Anderson :)
Standing for the Pledge of Allegiance is something most of us have done since we entered school. But, have you thought about why you're pledging allegiance to the flag? Oftentimes we do things out of obligation, without even thinking about it ourselves. If no one forced you to stand, would you still want to? Would you feel social pressure one way or the other? Please explain your answer.
AGENDA:
1. Journal
2. Post a paragraph to your blog describing Nick, the narrator of The Great Gatsby (title: MEET NICK). In the paragraph, describe where Nick is from, where he is now, and 2-3 things about him that you think might be important to know as we get into the story next week. You are welcome to read together and share ideas together, but please make sure that when you write your post that I'm reading your original thinking and writing.
