Bon jour!
Week three already...the year is flying!!!! I wish all of you luck this midterm week...I know you'll all do a great job.
Anywho... I am feeling a bit inspired by The Metamorphosis so let's look at that. This is a two part question...
1. Is Gregor a bug or not? How crazy would that be? Tell me what you think.
2. Speaking of insects...choose a character from any novel we've read thus far and tell me what bug they would be and why.
Crazy is as crazy does. Enjoy!

QOW#2-week of January 13th
Yowza! That last question was kind of cool in the responses that it received. Nicely done! I like to add quirky questions that make you think...but not too hard as I wouldn't want anyone to get hurt.
With that in mind...choose a character from any piece of literature you have read this year and have them author a "how to" book. Title of the overall book and give me about three chapter titles. As always, make sure to support yout choice.

QOW....January 1,2008
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!
Well, we have turned the corner and graduation will be here sooner than you think ( I am so going to cry that day!!)
I am going to give you an example of a metacognitive for the first QOW in this new year. People: this is what I am looking for as far as process of work:
So, I finally get my stupid computer to work...there is a conspiracy afoot since it keeps logging me out...I sense tampering!! As I sit in my extremely uncomfortable desk chair that has the back ripped off becuase my son was "curious" about how it was all attached, I knew that I had to stop procrastinating and put up the new QOW. I wonder if people know how hard it is to come up with this stuff. I doubt many appreciate my creativity. It's always "you give us too much work..blah..blah..blah!!" Anywho......I can't thinkof anything but the moving boxes surrounding me...at any moment they could topple over and crush me. I would hate to be crushed by a box full of Matchbox cars and Legos. I can't even imagine paramedics trying to pry tiny little Legos from my body. Maybe they'll find me with my hands shielding me from the sudden imapct...ahhhhh!!!! Stay with me here, people. I began to think how I would look curled up in the fetal psoition with toys all around me when I notice how I need a manicure. The polish is peeling, but I didn't really like the color. Let's procrastinate some more and go paint my nails. Surely I will become inspired while I wait for my nails to dry. I wondered if I should choose "Maple tree sap"brown or "How do you like these apples"red....and who names these polishes by the way. Seriously, someone is getting paid to sit around, look at a color, and name it. You too can "Think Pink" about how to "Strike it Rich" and gain "Red Respect." I want to name some colors; I wonder what others would name theirs.......which brings us to the QOW:
QOW #1:
Choose a character from any novel/play you have read this year. Based on the characterization of that person, have him/her create a nail polish color and name it. Remember to support your choice.
