The following assignment is extra credit. It is optional. However, if you have received a failing grade in this class, it is HIGHLY recommended that you take advantage of this opportunity.
Create a FAKEBOOK page for a character from The Outsiders. The first page should follow the same format as the profile you created for your biography project. Do NOT, however, include a post from yourself. Instead, your page should consist of 3 or 4 wall posts from other characters from the novel. Each of these posts should make reference to events from the book.
The second page will be the same as the biography project except for the ALL ABOUT ME SECTION. Since we don't know the entire life stories of these characters, that section will be eliminated. You can fill the space by posting some pictures or other things that can be found on a typical online profile page. The LATEST BLOG ENTRY section should follow a similar format to the one in the biography project: describe an important event from your character's point of view and give his/her feelings and thoughts on the event. Follow the same guidelines for the likes and interests section. The favorite quote should be something from the novel that is connected to your character.
The due date is to be determined, but likely it will be by the end of next week. A modified rubric will be posted soon. See me if you have any questions or concerns.
The grade for this assignment will replace your lowest 3rd marking period grade (except for a ZERO grade on a project).
I only want to see your BEST work. Don't hand in anything less.
