Assessment #2.

Myth Writing Assignment (aligned with Objective 2C): Each learner will create an original myth explaining the creation of something (example, how the sunflower got its name). The learner will then create an illustration to explain his or her myth. Learners may use various online tools or scan original art. Differentiation: Myth writing assignment: Students are given choices in use of technology tools (prezi, toondoo, power point) to provide multiple means of representation and expression. More advanced students may use tools such as Blabberize to create animated versions of their myth while more traditional writers may use Word documents with scanned photos of their original drawings. An example of the comic strip created for "How the Sunflower Got its Name" is included with this section. The comic was created using www.toondoo.com.
