October 30, 2014 - Thursday

Here's where we are:

A. First, we need to finish the TRANSFORMATION presentations.

Next:

B. Share a ghost story.  There are plenty out there. Find one. Practice telling it or practice reading it. Either way, you have no more than 5 minutes to share the tale. Use your voice, facial expressions and movements to make us believe that things really do go bump in the night. (75 points) http://americanfolklore.net/halloween.html


or
 B. We will study Halloween things. Draw your item out of the pumpkin. Your task is to find out all that you can about the history of the object. How did it come to be associated with Halloween? What is its significance? What special "powers" does it have? How is it viewed today. Create a picture collage of your object. Show it while you share the information with the class on Thursday. 75 points)

A. History
B. Halloween association
C. Importance
D. Powers
E. Reactions today

*******Extra Credit: Come in costume! This is NOT required but will take the place of 50 points of a PAST missing assignment. (Pictures, please!)

 Now - let's take a look at Ghost Towns: http://www.cbsnews.com/sunday-morning/
