ELA 30- Feb. 1 Self Identity

Hello D & P:

Today we shared our quotes and why we picked them- good job you guys! I was very impressed :)

Then we examined our identity and identified 10 qualities that we possess and the actions that prove we actually possess those qualities...

We then identified qualities about one another. The results were quite interesting!

In keeping with the theme of self identity and knowing ourselves we read a poem called "I am not I" by Juan Romon Jiminez.

You then did a portfolio entry based on the self and peer identified character traits...

  1. How do you see yourself?
  2. How do others see you?
  3. What are the similarities and differences between how you see yourself and how others see you?
  4. How does this 'self identity' discovery relate to the poem "I am not I" by Jiminez?

Following these activities (it was a double class) you read "The Crack-Up" by Fitzgerald and did the response questions. Yippee!
