Block A: Folder assignment: Anticipatory Guide (Evangeline); Students who did not attend the play are required to complete a history folder assignment (please see me for your article analysis sheet).
Block A: Legends and myths are due tomorrow!!!
What are myths?
A myth is not quite the same as a legend. Sometimes a myth is loosely based on a real event but, more often than not, it is a story that has been created to explain some aspect of the world or to teach people a moral lesson. Usually mythical in nature, dealing with the supernatural.

What
are legends?A legend is usually based on a true event in the past. However, the story may have changed over time to take on some special 'mythical' features.
Consider the Mi’kmaq legend you have been
read
Choose an aspect of
your world (can be natural or man-made) and come up with your own myth or
legend to explain this aspect.
Using illustration,
text and dialogue, create a comic strip portraying your myth/legend.
You will be assessed
on your understanding of the purpose of myths/legends as well as creativity and
effort
You do not need to
have drawing skills! Stick men work just fine; however, your presentation must
be attractive.
You may work in pairs
but each student is responsible for ten frames (the blocks)
¡So if you are working
in pairs, you must submit 20 frames. If you are working in a group of 3, submit
30, etc.
