Belle Prater, Question 4 (Homework 10/18)

As we reviewed in class about how to write and pick a great blog response, pick one person’s post that FULLY answered the question and respond as Woodrow’s mother. Remember, you are writing a letter and you want to be sure that you answer Woodrow’s questions to the best of your ability.

Remember to use examples from the text to support your answer (That DOES NOT mean COPY the author’s words, rather see what you can remember from Ch. 1-14 to help enhance your entry).

In addition, USE 3-5 VOC. WORDS AND CONTEXT CLUES (2) FROM UNIT 3.

Your entry should be a minimum of a paragraph or 7 “Your Age” sentences and demonstrate your ability to create a well thought out response.

Belle Prater, Question 3 (Homework 10/17)

Granpa Ball says “Appearances are just that, Gypsy—appearances, and not the genuine self.” Outwardly, Woodrow seems to be happy much of the time, telling jokes and laughing, but what about his other, inner life? Write a letter from Woodrow to his mother, expressing his true feelings about her disappearance.

Remember to use examples from the text to support your answer (That DOES NOT mean COPY the author’s words, rather see what you can remember from Ch. 1-14 to help enhance your entry).

In addition, USE 3-5 VOC. WORDS AND CONTEXT CLUES (2) FROM UNIT 3.
