Step 1) For my assignment, I have chosen the character Beowulf, the setting of Heorot, and the object of Grendel's arm.
Step 2) In my prewriting, I will brainstorm adjectives and verbs that reflect the appropriate mood for each element. For Beowulf, I might use words like fearless, heroic, strong, brave, and determined. For the setting of Heorot, I might use words like grand, majestic, imposing, celebratory, and lively. For Grendel's arm, I might use words like grotesque, gruesome, powerful, cursed, and triumphant.
Step 3) In my slideshow presentation, I will create one slide for each element. For the character of Beowulf, I will write a paragraph that highlights his fearless and heroic nature, emphasizing his physical strength and unwavering bravery. For the setting of Heorot, I will describe the grandeur and majesty of the hall, noting the lively and celebratory atmosphere that surrounds it. For Grendel's arm, I will focus on its grotesque and powerful appearance, discussing its connection to the curse that plagues Grendel and the triumph it represents for Beowulf.
Step 4) Once I reach Lesson 10, I will upload my final slideshow, showcasing my paragraphs on the character, setting, and object from Beowulf.
Step 1) Choose a character, a setting/place, and an object from Beowulf. Think about this step as you do your readings in the first few lessons.
Step 2) Prewriting in the “draft” in Lesson 5. Use the space in the Lesson 5 assessment to prewrite, brainstorming good adjectives and verbs that will reflect an appropriate mood in your final product later.
Step 3) Create a Slideshow presentation with one slide for your character, one for setting, and one for an object. Take your outline list and now turn it into a paragraph. One paragraph for character, one for setting/place, and one for the object.
Step 4) When you get to Lesson 10, you will upload your final slideshow. Please note, the example is not about Beowulf but your portfolio will be.
