How to make a nice card for your mother on Mother's Day: click here
Prefer "The Mom Song"?
We did the last two pages of the grammar packet.
In the literature book on page 203, we read about Ralph Waldo Emerson.
We discussed the excerpt from "Self Reliance" on page 209.
As an assignment for next class, write a full page. You may start with the MLA heading on the first four lines. Do not skip extra spaces. Write about something you read from Emerson. It might be a quote such as the ones below in this posting. You can take a sentence or two to explain the quote, but what I am really looking for is your thinking about the quote. Showing through a story how this quote relates to your life, or how it might relate to your life, would be a good way to go about it. In class, I illustrated this by sharing stories about my life where these quotes can be better understood.
Th hope is that you fill one page, single spaced. Feel free to double-space if you are willing to write two pages.
Feel free to search youtube for samples form Emerson.

Emerson quotes:
"Trust yourself; every heart vibrates to that iron string".

"Imitation is suicide".
