ENGLISH 2
We used our Springboard resource today to read the essay "Ethnic Hash" by Patricia Williams. This essay serves as a GREAT example of a cultural identity essay because Williams uses a metaphor to explain the personal anecdote of thinking about ethnicity and food. Because ethnicity (and often race... they're different) often plays a large role in how people define themselves, this was a fitting first-choice of an example. After reading the text to understand it, we completed a quick write concerning our own personal identities in relation to race. For the directions and writing prompt, clicker HERE. FRESHMAN LEADERSHIP We were finally able to get into our committees and started thinking about how we can serve our school as student leaders. The campus improvement team (Mr. Cleans) worked through a plan to help clean-up campus after 2nd lunches once a week. The School of P.R.I.D.E. team figured out a few ways that we can boost morale at CHS, including proposing the idea of playing music during passing periods!
