Read:
William Carlos Williams "apologizes" for eating someone's plums. He ends the poem with the half-hearted apology, "...they were delicious, so sweet..." Do: Write a tongue-in-cheek apology. It need not be in "poetic" form. You're sorry for something, but at the end there's always a reason why you enjoyed doing for which you're expressing sorrow. An example of this is "I'm sorry I broke your window, but it's the first time I ever hit a home run." Save your work to your English IV folder in a Word document with the file name: apology
Do: Be something. It might be a drop of rain, the color blue, a school bus, or a stalk of wheat. You have to be that object and tell me:
You can even make up a little biography of the object. Save your work to your English IV folder in a Word document with the file name: something
Do: Imagine you're at a carnival. You see a very strange-looking guy disappear into a doorway that somehow wasn't there a few seconds before. You follow the guy, and they have to tell me what happens once you're through the door. Where have you gone? What do you see?
