For this blog post, I used Prezi to create the presentation below, which illustrates how I took a story read in class, "A Christmas Memory" by Truman Capote, and connected it to my life.
This blog post connects to the unit theme, The Search for Identity, because my relationship with my grandmother helped me shape my identity.
I was inspired to create this because the story was similar with my life experiences and the relationship between the cousin and Buddy reminded me of my relationship with my grandmother.
CHECK OUT THE PRESENTATION BELOW FOR SOME SPECIFIC EXAMPLES OF HOW I RELATED TO THE STORY!
The three standards I used in this blog post are:
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.9-10.6 - I used technology, Prezi, to produce and publish this blog post.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.SL.9-10.5 - I used digital media in my blog post to give evidence.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.L.9-10.1 - I used standard English grammar/conventions in my blog post.
Really nice Prezi!
ReplyDeleteI love that you have such great memories of your grandmother and she's still helping to shape who you are! good job!
ReplyDeleteI liked the presentation and the examples you used to show how you relate to the story. Prezi seems like a cool tool.
ReplyDeleteYour presentation was very good, especially your examples which show how you relate to the story. Memories of special events and loved ones have a strong influence on you and you showed how they are shaping you as a young man. Great job
ReplyDeleteYou did a good job of relating your fond memories of your grandmother to the story. And very nice use of Prezi. So cool you're learning to use such neat tools. I can't wait to see what you do next! Keep up the great work!
