 * __My Story __**

TASK: I was to create an organized piece of writing that tells my story. My story is made up of details and memories that construct who I am.

INTENT: Everyone’s story begins the same way but from that moment on our “stories” become unique. Many people and many events are a part of our stories. The purpose of this assignment was for me to tell my story focusing on key events, people, and experiences that helped shape my story.

CRITERIA: My final piece has three paragraphs and a reflection: a) How my story began (5 marks) b) A specific memory or event that had a meaningful impact (5 marks) c) My future self – Who do I see? What goals do I want to attain? (5 marks) d) Reflection on my final piece of writing (5 marks) media type="custom" key="14611664"

 * __Iqbal __**

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Tahoma','sans-serif'; font-size: 17.3333px;">My class read the novel, //Iqbal//, by Francesco D’Adamo. This story is about a real boy named Iqbal Masih who is sold into a life of slavery at a carpet factory in Lahore, Pakistan. We learned about the working conditions of overworked and abused children who are forced to make carpets all day long and are denied many of their basic rights. Iqbal knows that this kind of life isn’t right and he tries to make a difference in the lives of many.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Tahoma','sans-serif'; font-size: 17.3333px;">Throughout the novel, the chapters were only labelled with a number. I took on the role of being the author and I came up with chapter titles that I thought described the events of that chapter. I then summarized the chapter with 3 points of information.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Tahoma','sans-serif'; font-size: 17.3333px;">We read the short story, “Thank you, Ma’am” by Langston Hughes. This story shows the consequences a young thief faces after attempting to steal a strong, yet compassionate, victim’s purse. Rather than punish the young thief, Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones empathizes with him and takes him into her home for a hot meal. She teaches him a valuable life lesson.
