10-2-08: Right Mindfulness, Right Concentration; Siddhartha Ch. 8 (A Days)

Today we had two final great group presentations: Right Mindfulness and Right Concentration. We turned in our Group Presentation Note page too!

Next we read Siddhartha Ch. 8 and continued to work on our Hero's Journey Chart and Connections Chart.

Finally, we talked about the last assignment of the term--at least that you don't know about yet! Yay! This assignment will be for you to write a story about your life that follows the Hero's Journey. Write about an event that you accomplished in which you went through the Hero's Journey. I realize that not every stage will match up perfectly. But remember this is a story--every detail doesn't have to be completely accurate. Be creative and fill in the details, just base the story around something you have accomplished!

For Monday:
1. If you missed class, read Siddhartha Ch. 8
2. Complete the Hero's Journey Graphic Organizer for YOU and your story. We will be drafting your story in class, so make sure you get this done!
3. Get your 2nd Book and read, read, read!
4. Write in your Writer's Journal.
