Michael's Class - Hero's Journey Writing Activity + Weekend HW

What's good 211 fam?! To get ourselves thinking about the concept of the "Hero's Journey" this morning you will be participating in a guided "Hero's Journey" writing activity.

Read the prompts at the beginning of the activity and create your own "Hero's Journey" story. So long as it is middle school appropriate you can make it be whatever you want (even if it isn't 100% connected to prompts).

You won't be able to print your writing, so if you want to keep what you come up with, copy/paste your responses into a Google Doc.

Click here to begin: Hero's Journey - Interactive Writing Activity (you will need to enable your "flash player" for this to work).

If you finish early you can create images to go along with your story in your WW Journal or you can silently read.

All students should be engaged in this activity within the first 5 minutes of class.

Weekend HW:
1. Read daily!!!

2. Consider what book you might want to read for our "Hero's Journey/Change-maker" choice reading unit. We are going to spend time looking more deeply at this genre and topic and just right book options come Wednesday, but for now here is a list of titles to check out that might help you get started: Hero's Journey - Book List
