Memorable Passage

 
Post a passage (probably just a paragraph or so) from a book that was memorable to you. Type the passage in word for word and add some of your own thoughts before and/or after, explaining why this particular set of words caught your attention or has stayed in your memory.  See the instructions and example on the blue handout. Title this post Memorable Passage.  Include an image with this post, too.

 
I write quite a bit on my blog about what I read, if nothing else just to remember, but often to reflect on words that stuck with me. If you are so inclined or need some ideas about books to read or what you might write about reading, you can check out my posts here and here and here and here and here. But that's totally optional.

By the end of class Friday, be sure that you have posted this assignment, the Writers as Readers assignment, and the Daydreaming assignment.  Check with me or Ms. Ferkel to be certain you completed all of last week's posts, too. 

Thanks again for being such an interesting and friendly group to work with...
