As announced at the start of the semester, I will be dropping the lowest grade for the weekly reading quizzes and am giving you the chance to make up another quiz, if you missed class or did not do well. For this make-up assignment, you will be producing a six-word memoir--paired with an image--for one of the characters or authors we have encountered this semester. See the example above.

Detailed instructions can be found in this handout:

Six-Word Memoir Assignment (attached Below)

It should be submitted as an image file (jpeg, jpg, png). The easiest way to make this image is to construct it in Powerpoint or in Google Slides, then export it as a jpeg, etc. For more information about how to make and export a Google slide, click on the link below:

If you make the slide in Powerpoint, choose "File" then "Export..." and save the file as a jpeg.

This assignment is due by the end of the day on April 27. The author selected is Mary Wollstonecraft, based on her book "the Vindication of the Rights of Woman" (I will need quotes from the book, which you can Google I believe)
