I shared my Symbaloo with you today!
The links in green are all of the things people can do with their cremains (that I showed you yesterday!), purple links are links about writing your OWN obituary, yellow are links to help you write obituaries in general, and teal are links of funny obituaries that I found.
Today, we just finished writing our obituaries! Remember – this will be due tomorrow, even though we won’t have time in class to work on the paper.
Live extraordinary lives! <3
Riley started out by giving us time to finish the Blog of Death. Go to the Blog of Death and find the obituary of one person who is a great example of Carpe Diem. Copy the obit, and paste it in the discussion board (in the Obituary folder) entitled “Who Seized the Day?”. Make sure you write at least one sentence explaining why that person was a good example of carpe diem.
We then read The Dash and Riley explained that this is the point of writing our own obituary – don’t focus on the dates, focus on the dash!
You should be able to see the rubric in LMS if you click on the Drop Box.
After your obit is written, copy/paste it in either Wordle or Tagexdo to create an awesome word cloud.
This was the only day that we will work on this class – if you did not get this done today (or weren’t here), you will have to work on this on your own time.
