1- Pen-pal time! Find the letter from your pen pal located in the small gold envelope, read it, and then respond on a piece of notebook paper. Be sure to answer your letter PROACTIVELY, thinking about what you say and ask. Express your excitement to meet them in two months! This should take no more than 15 minutes. When you finish writing your letter, place it in the gold envelope. Keep the letter your pen pal wrote you.
2- Then, begin writing your personal mission statement. Start by looking through the white packet in the green basket. Answer the questions and take the "footsteps" to creating your own. When you come to the part about interviewing three people, choose one person in our class. Interview them. The other two people should be done as homework- a friend outside of class, parent, neighbor, or a community member who knows you well. Don't worry about making your mission statement perfect, just write. As ideas come to you, write them down. You can add stuff later as you think about it. What should it look like? How long should it be? Anything. However long it needs to be for it to be meaningful to you. It can look like a paragraph or like an acrostic poem I wrote when I was your age: "RELY" Respect all Envision and hope Love and appreciate Yearn for knowledge and never stop learning There is no right or wrong way to write a mission statement. Just make sure that it reflects YOU! This rough draft will be due on Thursday. Bring it with you to class next time. It is worth 20 points. This should take about 30 minutes. 3- If by some crazy chance you finish early, work on your game for creative pursuits.
