Lit 12 Proposal

Instead of doing boring Nova-Net, I would much rather read Brave New World, and do a nifty corresponding project. The only issue is that I must identify all of the Ga Standards.

They are:


ELABLRL1 The student demonstrates comprehension by identifying evidence (i.e., examples of diction, imagery, point of view, figurative language, symbolism, plot events, main ideas, and characteristics) in a variety of texts representative of different genres (i.e., poetry, prose [short story, novel, essay, editorial, biography], and drama) and using this evidence as the basis for interpretation.


ELABLRL2 The student identifies, analyzes, and applies knowledge of theme in a work of British and/or Commonwealth literature and provides evidence from the work to support understanding.


ELABLRL3 The student deepens understanding of literary works by relating them to their contemporary context or historical background, as well as to works from other time periods.


ELABLRL4 The student employs a variety of writing genres to demonstrate a comprehensive grasp of significant ideas in selected literary works. The student composes essays, narratives, poems, or technical documents.


ELABLRL5 The student understands and acquires new vocabulary and uses it correctly in reading and writing.

Okay, so my proposal is to write a total of 4 blog responses. This is one post per 50 pages. To cover standards 1-3 & 5, I will write lengthy blog responses, showing the standards and my reactions to them. To cover my fourth standard, "the composed" part, I will create a set of photos in photoshop and will post them on a powerpoint. Everything will be "okayed" by you, Mr. siegmund, before I complete and post them to this blog.

You know what? Nevermind! I have decided that this project might just be a waste of my valuable time. Jim finished and I now have decided that I should just go ahead and do the stinking novanet and just be done with it. =)
