Today we finished the CISM lesson about personification and imagery used in the story "From the Street" by Ann Petry.  We went over it and discussed the imagery, the personification and how the text was coded.  For homework, students are to create a project showing Lutie Johnson's relationship to the urban setting through the use of literary devices like personification and imagery.  Students may choose a project to do.  They may write an essay about this, they may create a detailed drawing about this (quality should be high), students may create a comic strip about this, they may write a song and video it or record it, or they may create a video.  This will be due on Monday.  Remember that it has to be school appropriate.
