This will be your last assignment in social studies. The due date is Tuesday June 16. You can email your me the final paper or turn it in to the office. What is Reflective Writing? Reflective writing, also known as personal writing, requires you to reflect on the topic on a personal level. Reflective writing is not based on research on the topic, but instead centers on your opinions, thoughts, and experiences. The purpose of reflective writing is to serve as an evaluation—perhaps on what you have learned or discovered about a culture that we studied. Tips on Writing Reflection Papers A reflection paper is not a summary of the course readings but an insight to your thoughts, likes and dislikes.A reflection paper is your chance to add your thoughts and analysis to what you have read and experienced. Your paper should answer these questions in a narrative format:Why did you enjoy studying that culture?What do you remember from your learning?How well did you do on the assignments? How could you do better?2. A reflection paper is meant to illustrate your understanding of the material and how it affects your ideas and possible practice in future. 3. Begin by jotting down some of the reading material and class experiences that stand out in your mind. Decide why they stand out to you. 4. It may be helpful to use the restorative questions (i.e. What was my reaction when I learned... , Why do I do better on project work than textbook work? ) to generate some of your thoughts and feelings about the course experience. 5. Using the first person singular (“I”), reflect on your classroom/home experiences and learning.6. Give your reflection paper structure with an opening paragraph, main body, and conclusion. 7. It may be helpful to write the body of the paper first by using step 1, and then decide what your opening paragraph should say.The opening paragraph should be brief, only a few sentences, but it should offer some overall statement of your perspective based on what you’ve learned (e.g., Before I read the articles on Ancient Egypt, I never realized the mummification process was so complex. OR I found _________ the most interesting ancient culture because…) Then you could go on to describe which readings or class experiences affected your thinking and why. Feel free to disagree with some of the readings or ideas. (e.g. I enjoyed working on the power point projects where I was responsible for my own research or I thought the textbooks assignments were too long. I would much rather work in groups because…) The conclusion of your reflection paper may also be brief focus on letting your audience know you are done (e.g., In the future I realize that I need to use my time better in class to get my assignments done on time or I hope someday to travel to Greece and see authentic Greek theatre.)This Week’s Agate Language ArtsALL LIBRARY BOOKS, INCLUDING SHAKESPEARE, MUST BE TURNED IN THIS WEEK!

Download a copy from the Shakespeare Library and keep reading: ; keep listening, too: For the next two weeks, kick the can as you play with words and practice these speeches. If you can, partner with someone at home or by video call. As you listen to and practice these speeches, be aware of the characters and how they might say the lines. Change the tone in which you say the lines. Make your character angry, sad, happy, silly, in love, or in total disbelief (one emotion at a time). Then decide how you think the character would actually say the lines.

Did you know that students who read over the summer have an advantage when they return to school in the fall??According to University of Florida researchers, most students who read 10 to 20 self-selected books over the summer not only maintain their reading skills, but actually make gains. (). Here are some resources to support summer reading:Interested in social justice and anti-racist work? The library will be running a summer book group to read and discuss This Book is Anti-Racist: 20 Lessons on How to Wake Up, Take Action, and Do The Work. “Gain a deeper understanding of your anti-racist self as you progress through 20 chapters that spark introspection, reveal the origins of racism that we are still experiencing, and give you the courage and power to undo it. Each chapter builds on the previous one as you learn more about yourself and racial oppression. 20 activities get you thinking and help you grow with the knowledge. All you need is a pen and paper.” Contact Ms. Atherton if you’re interested in reading the book and joining the discussion.If you’d rather read and think on your own, here’s a recommended list of 20 SOCIAL JUSTICE BOOKS FOR YOUNG ADULTS AND MIDDLE GRADES. Many of these books are available in the KMS library. Contact Ms. Atherton for more information.Check out the Sora App for digital books and audio books! (Click this link for a quick intro video.)
