Visionary Allusion Tones

1 & 3: We commenced class by working on the exemplification activity covering vision. Each group member composed a paragraph exemplifying one person (or idea or group or something) on a shared Google document. If absent, you will need to add your paragraph to the group document as soon as possible so that I may give feedback on your work as an individual and as a team. After the writing time, we shared our third allusion posters and then began our second round of tone words. First hour voted for pandas as the tone paragraph topic; third hour selected turtles for their tone paragraph topic. Jessica, your random tone word for the week is "cliched," which means a worn-out idea or overused expressions. Hannah, your random tone word for the week is "gothic," which means characterized by gloom, mystery, and the grotesque. Make sure that you compose that tone paragraph for Friday's class.

7: After a very long opening hour of guidance visits and vision writing, we were finally able to share our allusion posters - even if our last ladies had to rush their explanations (sorry).  We did not have a chance to start our tone paragraphs although we did choose dogs for our Friday topic. If you will be absent on Friday due to a previous engagement, stop by on Thursday for your tone word. Otherwise, I will just randomly draw one for you and post it on the blog.
