A bit of artistic inspiration: James Baldwin. |
A) In your composition notebooks, write a short "nonfiction" piece that emulates one of these styles. Tell me which piece you are attempting to recreate. Feel free to write about whatever your heart desires. Here are some prompts you could work with:
- Discuss one glaring social issue. Why is it a problem? How should it be remedied?
- Describe a person who has had a large impact on your life but is no longer in contact with you. Why is this person important? Where did they go? Do you miss this person?
- Review a recent film, television show, video game, or book.
- Tell a story from your childhood.
If you complete the activity before the end of class, please place your composition notebook on my desk and quietly work on your nonfiction projects.
