English 10 Homework for Monday, January 5 to Thursday, January 8:

1. Work on your Provincial Personal Essay: 'People's understanding of the world changes over time." You should be thinking about how this prompt applies to you. As time passes, people often change the way they think. They may learn new information or have experiences that alter the way they see the world.  You should be personal in your response, as it will be easier for you to write what you know. However, you may use other examples as well. Make sure you are explaining your examples clearly and engaging the reader.

The instructions on the exam are as follows: "You may be persuasive, narrative and/or descriptive. You may use ideas based on your own experience, the experience of others, your reading, your imagination, or from any aspect of your life."

You will be writing this at the end of the week, in class, with no notes.
