Today in most homerooms, students had about 1 hour to work on this assignment. Then, in writing, they had another 20-30 minutes. This is what was assigned:

Start your multi paragraph paper with the 1st paragraph about generally how your family views traditions…do you have many, few, big part of your family, etc.

In your 2nd paragraph discuss, in detail, one of your traditions you picked. Make sure to define what it is and how your family celebrates the tradition. Show the reader an experience you had with this tradition that would help us to understand it…show us the tradition, don’t tell us about it. Also in the 2nd paragraph, make sure to tell the reader what this means to you and if you plan to continue it and why.

Conclude the paper with a 3rd paragraph about how you think you will view family traditions in the future. Gives us examples why you feel the way you do.
