12-8-14Jerrica-Hope all is well. This week we are reading Tuesdays with Morrie and doing activities based around the book.Monday-We are reading pages 5-25 in the book.For each chapter, you need to find an aphorism or powerful quote and write a response to it. I provided a layout handout for the first two chapter. You will follow this layout for each chapter that you read. Every quote+response is worth 5 points each.Tuesday-We will be working on a research activity.For this activity, choose a major charity as the focus of your research. Find out the history of the charity, the problem the charity tries to help or fix, and ways (events, fundraisers, concerts, medical research, etc.) the charity tries to help. For example, if you choose the Red Cross, you should write about the history of the Red Cross, a problem or two the Red Cross tries to address, and what the Red Cross does to fix that problem. Be sure to paraphrase the information you find and cite the sources you used. Do not copy the text word for word.One to two pages double space.Wednesday-We are reading pages 25-47 in the book.Continue to find and write about a quote for each chapter.Thursday-We are reading 48-68 in the book.Continue to find and write about a quote for each chapter.On page 66, Mitch writes a list. Write the list down on a blank piece of paper. For each topic, write one-two sentences stating your belief or opinion about the topic. You will be expand on this list as you continue reading.Friday-We are reading 69-89 in the book. Continue the quote work.On the 4th Tuesday Chapter, Morrie and Mitch talk about death.
