Please complete the "Quickwrite" on page 220 in your textbook.
Quickwrite: What is your most prized possesion? What is most important to you? If there was a fire and you only had time to get one thing out of your house, what would it be and why?
there were lots of garden-variety answers...
"I would save my photo album of all my friends and family."
"My family is most important to me, so I would make sure I had them first."
"I'd save my cat (dog, bird, etc.) first."
there were some sweet, sentimental answers...
"I would save my gold necklace that my grandma gave me because I don't get to see her very often."
"I would take the photo of me and my sister - we'll probably never be as happy as we were in that picture because our lives changed shortly after it was taken."
"It might sound weird, but my cellphone. My cousin gave it to me, and he died a few months later."
"My blankie. I've had it since I was a month old and just having it in my room makes me feel better. We've been through a lot together."
some were practical...
"I'd take my laptop, because first, it has all my pictures and music on it, and second, because it was expensive and my parents would kill me."
"I would grab my cell phone because that way I could call for help."
and then there were these two...
"I would make sure to save my dog because I love him. (But my most prized possesion is my PS2)"
...and my favorite...
"My most prized possesion is my Xbox. Without it, I wouldn't be able to play Halo 3, and then what would I do?"
well, at least he's honest...
