In exploring the intricacies of identity, the importance of a name becomes evident. Names carry stories, cultural significance, and personal history that shape who we are. This essay examines the communities we engage with, the shared experiences that bond us, and the communities we wish to join but haven't yet explored. By reflecting on the meaning behind our names and the connections we forge through them, we can better understand our identities and our places within various communities.

Transcription de la présentation

  1. Thursday, January 19, 2012 Bell Work: Journal– With which community do you spend the most time? What activities do you share? What community do you want to be a part of but are not?

  2. Objectives • Write an engaging lead for the name paragraph. • Peer review paragraphs.

  3. How to Write a Lead: #1 • Begin with a quote – “What’s in a name? That which we know as a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” William Shakespeare may have thought a rose would have been the same even if it was called a roach, but I think my specific name has helped make me who I am.

  4. How to Write a Lead #2 • Begin with dialogue – “Hey, You!” Imagine that you were only addressed in that way, and it makes you realize the importance of your name. • “What should we call him/her?” My mom and dad debated over who I should be before they even knew me. They spent hours poring over baby books and talking to other people before they finally settled on… Amanda.

  5. How to Write a Lead #3 • Begin with a question – Have you ever thought about the meaning of your name? Knowing what my name means, how I got it, and the story behind it has made my name more significant to me.

  6. Main Idea Statement • Make sure to include the main points of your paper in a statement that lets the reader know where you are going. • The meaning of my first, middle, and last names surround me with confidence and help me know who I am. • Knowing the meaning of my name, the story behind how I got it, and the love behind the choice of my nickname makes me appreciate my name more than ever.

  7. Revise • Write a new lead for either your graphic organizer or rough draft. • Add a main idea statement if you don’t already have one. • Look for ways to combine sentences and ramp up your vocabulary to add to the sophistication of your name.

  8. Peer Review • Three before me • Find three people to read your paper before you prepare the final copy. • Write comments either on the paper or on post-its to help your classmate achieve a better grade.

  9. Final Copy • Prepare your final copy. • Write in blue or black ink or you may type. • Turn your paper in tomorrow at the beginning of class.
