Extra+Credit+Opportunities

**Propose it to Mrs. Jacobson first, and if it is approved, begin work.**
 * Extra Credit is awarded for extra work you do in order to help your classmates learn something we are covering in class. Visual projects (such as posters and PowerPoint presentations), songs, poems, notes, and other handouts are the most common projects, but I am open to your proposals. Got a cool way to help your classmates learn and remember something we discussed in class?**

This is where you will find some ideas for projects: 1) Make a vocabulary slide show for future units (no past units, please) --include a strong picture clue, the word, and its definition. (10 points-(2 allowed per student for each marking period) 2) Make a poster that contains a visual and textural representation of the timeline of any play, story, or novel we've read this year. (10 points)  3) (5.0) Make a model of the Dionysian Theatre OR Shakespeare's Globe Theatre. (10 points) 4) Write a poem from one of the character's point of view (maybe a character from //Catcher in the Rye//?) (5 points)  5) Pick a quote from one of the works we have read this year, and draw a picture that helps illustrate the quote. Please type up the quote, and you can use computer art. I will laminate it and put it on the wall! (2 points) 6) Bring in a box of tissues. (1 point, 5 boxes allowed per student/marking period)  7) //Julius Caesar// character posters. Make a poster for one of the characters. Use important character quotes, draw a picture of what the character might look like, give a description of the character, etc.
