Remember, after you read it, you have a JOURNAL WRITING ASSIGNMENT.
1. Write down your thoughts and impressions as well as any passages you like or words you don't understand or anything you notice.

2. Please write down what you think the "purpose" of the article was. Why did the writer write it? Why are people reading it? Did he achieve his purpose?

3. How is this article relevant to you? EXPLAIN.

*4. (THE MOST IMPORTANT) Write at least TWO paragraphs on something related to the article. It can be a mini-essay, it can be a longer response, it can be a personal experience or essay, it can even be a short story, but it should relate to the article. The choice is yours of what you write and the tone. It should be good writing, as I may grade this piece when I collect your journals.
