Here is the unit calendar.
Longer-Range Due dates: Read p. 1-92 due Wednesday (9/3) Journal entry due Friday (9/5) Book = completed by Wednesday (9/10) Creative Tree Project due Thursday (9/11) (below are two examples from previous classes) If you're stuck, I recommend using Pinterest or Google Images to give you some ideas of how you might creatively portray your tree if drawing/painting scares you. I included a few I found. Including a video that does walk you through drawing trees! You could do a leaf rubbing, try out cubism, trace an image and add your own unique touches to it, do a more abstract approach, paper mache........ the list is pretty much endless. Maybe experiment with a few ideas like Melinda does. Hairwoman: English teacher Mr. Freeman: art teacher Mr. Neck: history teacher Heather: Melinda’s only friend for most of the school ear Rachel: Melinda’s ex-best friend that changes her name to Rachelle Melinda’s high school: Merryweather High Family communicates: through sticky notes Art assignment: to create a tree that “speaks” Escapes to: an abandoned janitor’s closet that she decorated When she dissects a frog: she’s reminded of the night of her rape and faints She defends herself from Andy at the end of the book by: breaking a mirror and holding a piece up to his neck and the screaming for help Point of view: 1st person – uses “I” “me” “my” and we only see Melinda’s perspective Motif: recurring image, phrase, idea that develops a theme through repetition (mouths, mirrors) Symbol: image that represents an idea or quality (tree, mascots)
