Journals
All
journals should be numbered at the top of the page (journal #_). They must be
at least one page in length and done in pen or typed. I will be collecting
these periodically throughout the year.
You will be asked to write in your journal frequently
this year, and I want this to be a place where you can write “safely” and get
into the habit of getting your ideas down on paper. I plan on assigning
free-writes most often, but want to start the year off with some prompts that
will help me get to know you better. Please choose two of these for Journal #1 and Journal #2.
A. Describe
a time when you felt invisible. What were the circumstances? How did you feel?
Who do you blame? Remember to
look at the role you played in your own invisibility.
B. Everyone
plays different roles in their lives. Describe the roles that best define who you are right now in
your life. Use specific examples to explain why they are so significant.
- How people react in
the face of a challenge can tell you a lot about them. Describe some challenges you have faced and how you
dealt with them. Explain why this tells us something about you.
