Due April 15, 2020 (Diary - slice of life)

Your assignment this week is to write a paragraph a day, for seven days, about our new (temporary) normal.
Remember, this is to be completed in the style of a diary or journal. Highlight what is different in your day to day life because of COVID-19.  
No KWO required . . . . but please do complete a Checklist.

Your assignment is complete when you have written 7 paragraphs -- that is 7 days of journaling.

SHARE your doc with me IMMEDIATELY, so that I can see you are writing EVERY SINGLE DAY.

Keep up with your vocab, guys!


REQUIREMENTS (not per paragraph but within the whole essay)
all the dress ups
all the openers
5 DECs (no repeats)
3 M3s
2 OWLs


Need help getting started as you reflect on the "New (temporary) Normal" ?
Consider starting everyday with a Bible verse and reading about the saints.
Find inspiration there and include this in your daily paragraph reflections.  Just thin ! It is a  "built-in" DEC 1, maybe a DEC 2 and possibly a DEC 3.
Here is a link to readings for the day:  Link to USCCB

Think about these questions:

What has changed in your day-to-day life since COVID-19 became “a thing”? 
Which changes have caused the greatest imposition(s)? 
Which changes have led to the most distress? 
Which changes, if any, have been pleasantly surprising? 
Which changes have led to some relief of distress?
