    I DON'T KNOW IF YOU REALIZE IT OR NOT, BUT YOU ARE LIVING IN A VERY SIGNIFICANT MOMENT IN HISTORY RIGHT NOW. THE CORONAVIRUS HAS CHANGED OUR LIVES IN SO MANY WAYS. WE NEVER COULD HAVE IMAGINED THE IMPACT THIS VIRUS WOULD HAVE ON OUR DAILY LIVES AND WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE ON OUR LIVES FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE.

    WHAT YOUR SUMMER ASSIGNMENT WILL BE IS TO KEEP A WEEKLY JOURNAL OF YOUR THOUGHTS, FEELINGS, AND THE WAYS YOUR LIFE HAS CHANGED (AND WILL CONTINUE TO CHANGE) BECAUSE OF THE CORONAVIRUS. WHEN WE RETURN TO SCHOOL, YOU WILL BE PUTTING THE PAGES OF YOUR JOURNAL TOGETHER FOR YOU TO HAVE YOUR OWN "CORONAVIRUS JOURNAL". SOMEDAY YOU CAN LOOK BACK AT IT AND REMEMBER THIS PERIOD IN TIME AND HOW YOU FELT, WHAT YOU DID, HOW YOUR LIFE CHANGED, ETC.

    EACH WEEK ON MONDAYS, STARTING ON JULY 6TH AND ENDING ON AUGUST 24TH, I WILL POST QUESTIONS ON MY TEACHER PAGE TO GUIDE YOU WITH YOUR WRITING FOR THAT WEEK. YOU CAN WRITE (OR TYPE) YOUR PAGES ON PAPER OR IN A NOTEBOOK. YOU MUST HAVE ALL THE PAGES TO BRING TO SCHOOL WHEN WE RETURN TO GET CREDIT FOR THIS ASSIGNMENT.

STUDENTS ENTERING GRADE 7: MUST HAVE AT LEAST 8-10 SENTENCES WRITTEN WEEKLY.

EACH WEEK MUST BE LABELED ( WEEK 1, WEEK 2, ETC.).

EACH WEEK MUST BE A SEPARATE PAGE (AT LEAST 8 SEPARATE PAGES IN TOTAL).

IF YOU DO THIS IN A NOTEBOOK, PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO RIP THE PAGES OUT TO CREATE THE JOURNAL WHEN WE RETURN TO SCHOOL.
 

    LET YOUR CREATIVE JUICES FLOW! YOU ARE MAKING HISTORY!
