----- Original Message ----- From: laurie ornstein - laurenmadeline@xxxxxxxxx Subject: another creative writing task Hi All, Sara G. suggested a lovely writing task based on "Teacher Man". Here's another one. I taught the poem, "Theme for English B" by Langston Hughes http://www.eecs.harvard.edu/~keith/poems/English_B.html. I gave the same assignment, as that in the poem, to my 9th grade 5+ group. Theme for English B The instructor said, Go home and write a page tonight. And let that page come out of you--- Then, it will be true. I got some memorable writing tasks.
