Term 3 Week 2


 * __You need to select 2 of these activities.__**

What would perseverance look like if...


 * you are in the middle of a hard job and you are beginning to feel tired?
 * you have spent a lot of time practicing a sport or dance and doubt if you have what it takes?
 * you are doing something you have never done before and you are afraid you won't get it right?
 * you are beginning to feel bored with a long-time friend?

Think about these scenarios. What would you do? How would you persevere? Prepare a poster (A3 or A4) illustrating these four scenarios (your poster might include all four or it may just focus on one). Think creatively and hand in work that is well planned and well executed (look up what this word means in this context - no-one will get killed).

__The Hare and the Tortoise.__

Research this fable. All you have to do is read it and understand what it is about.

Once you have done that answer these questions:


 * 1) When in your life have you been like the hare?
 * 2) When in your life have you been like the tortoise?

Give me three examples of when you have been like the hare and three when you have been like the tortoise. Write these on a sheet of plain A4. Make sure your work is attractive - it will go in your portfolio.

__ Acrostic Poem __

Write an acrostic poem to illustrate perseverance. You could either select one word for each initial letter or you could write a few words for each initial letter. Again, make this beautiful. It will go in your portfolio.


 * __ Artwork __**

Produce a piece of artwork (2D please) that symbolizes perseverance. You can choose whether it'd drawn, paited etc and ehat medium it'll be in. You could develop the idea we started in class about the badges.
