Wednesday - Period 3

Group B - Deconstruction and analysis of 'Making the Cut' blog entry

Group A - Weebly tasks:  

1. Create a new page called 'Identity'.  On this page you are to write a paragraph that describes your identity.  Make sure you address your personal, social and cultural identities.  
2. Then create a sub-page called 'Stereotypes'.  On this page type up the two diary entries for ONE of the stereotypes you considered in Week 2.  This character may be one that you incorporate in your own short story about identity in future weeks.
3. Create another sub-page called 'Making the Cut'.  On this page add a link to Zoe Keating's blog entry which you will find here.  Insert a YouTube video of one of her cello performances and photos of Zoe.
4. Finally, using the blog entry we deconstructed on Monday, write a paragraph in response to the question:  How does Zoe Keating define her identity in her blog entry, 'Making the Cut'?  Make sure you make reference to specific examples and the language techniques she uses in her blog post.

Homework:  Don't forget to post your comment to the weekly reading journal for 'The Running Man'.  Use the tab under the blog heading and follow the Week 3 prompt instructions.
