After I thought of my topic, which is women suffrage I decide my first genre should be character profile. I think I should know who is the main women, that fight hard for their rights. I went to Google and type in ''Elizabeth- women suffrage'', I know that she is one of the main people that fight for women right. As I read about her life I saw a name that call Alice Paul. I like the name and start googling on her. I really like what she did to fight for women suffrage, so my first
chraracter profile is about her!
After I finish my first post, I went to the 7
th grade humanities blog and look at the list of genres. I saw the word poem and I think it's easy, so I start to type a poem about how the women felt when they are basically treated like a slave. But as I start to think, the poem start to get really hard for some reason. I ask my friend to think of something that have to do with women suffrage. I finish, and I thank for the people that helps me. If I type my poem and think all to myself it'll take 3 days!
I think timeline should be my next genre, so I went to Google and type in ''women suffrage -timeline'' . I got bunch of website of information I need. I'm pretty glad and pick one. The next thing I know was a bunch of data and event.
OMG! I can't copy and paste, ''what should i do?'' I ask myself. I read all the data in the timeline and took ms.
sackstein's advice, which is '' make it to your own word'' It took pretty long, but I finish it!
Then I decide to do descriptive paragraph, cause it seem pretty easy. But you need to be specific. My paragraph is about when did women suffrage begin, and the main women that fight for their rights. I try to make it specific, and I also try to write down the most
inportant deatail.
My next genre was a letter. Susan B. Anthony is writing a letter to her mother. I try to pretend that I was Susan B. Anthony. But writing a letter to her mom was pretty hard, cause I need to organize the data and the date that she is writing to her mom. I went to
google again and type in timeline of Susan B. Anthony, so I know her better.
I pick Map as my next genre. I think I should pick something easy next, so I pick map. I went to Google and type '' map of women suffrage'', and click image. There is few map that is clear and have good information it. I don't know that I should write what's going on in the map. Ms.
sackstein comment and told me that I have to write what's going on, so I wrote a sentence or two.
I went to 7
th grade humanities blog and look for the list of different genre. I don't know how to do some of them, and Ms.
sackstein said we can do it more than one times. So, I decide to do character profile again. This time I am going to do bullet points about Susan B.
Anthony. I found out she didn't live to see women gain their right. I really like her
character, and how strong she is!
Then I write poem again, cause I think I start to like them when my friend read her's out loud. This time I wrote about the men point of view. I try to think as a guy, and I write it down in a piece of paper. Then I change it to a poem and post it to the blog.
I pick map again for my 9th genre. Of course I went to google and got my map there. The map said '' women suffrage before the nineteenth Amendment 1920'' On the bottom it have bars fill with different color, which represent states that have women suffrage.
My last genre was a letter again. Elizabeth Cady stanton's letter to her father. Her partner Susan B. anthony, fight for women suffrage with her. She also didn't live to see women gain their right. Elizabeth was a great writee and susan was a great speaker, so both of them make a great partner!
