For this week you will do:
1.  The Reading Log
2.  The Vocabulary Assignment
3.  Complete your final draft of your response to literature if you have not done so
4.  Writing Assignment (Directions Below)

Writing Assignment Directions:  Heroes and sages are not only in books and movies!  Heroes and sages are living among us this very moment!  Who in your life has played a heroic or sage-like role?  Do you have a grandparent or parent who teaches you important life lessons?  Has your life been touched by an act of heroism?
Write at least three paragraphs about a sage or elder in your life.  Introduce them and explain why and how they play this role.   
If you do not have a sage or hero in your life, ask someone about one in their life and interview them about their experience.  Write about this person's hero or sage.
