Re-posted! Challenge Options!

Challenge Criteria Reminder:

You need 2 by the end of the semester if you are A or B seeking. These are assignments that show you have extended your learning. See 8 options below:
Choose to:

1. Make an appointment this week with Ms. Brandy to be filmed as a group performing your Newscast.

2. Choose an Igbo proverb from the list and illustrate it (beautifully, showing understanding and using symbolism).

3. Read a multicultural novel as an independent book and create a project representing your learning (check with Ms. Brandy about the project first).

4. Write a short narrative (typed and double-spaced) from the perspective of Okonkwo, Nwoye, or Ekwefi.

5. Research some aspect of the book based on a question you have, ie. How did they have guns if they hadn't seen white people before? What is the natural history of the yam? How widespread was its use? Reference at least two sources, cite them and compose a brief report of your findings.

6. Illustrate some aspect of Things Fall Apart, either in a poster or storyboard.  Remember, quality is everything. If it's not meaningful to you, it won't be worth the effort.

7. Free Rice--Spend time on the site and earn 10,000 grains. Once you have done this, take a picture of your score with your phone, or print the image of the screen and turn in.

8. Propose a small project that relates to our unit inspired by your own interests.
