Journaling
As you did for Grade 10, conclude your Grade 11 work with personal writing. Journaling can capture how you are meeting a normative challenge—relating to others—as well as applying new skills—keeping active in thought, reflection, and writing. Journaling is both freewriting and well-considered reflection.
By the end of this chapter, you and your classmates— alone or alongside peers of other schools through global classrooms—have worked on activities, tasks, and norms related to Identity. You have pondered relationships, independence/dependence/interdependence, and place in community. You have also combined SLA and sustainable development learning. Reflect now on the Grade 11 Guiding Questions posed at the start of this chapter.
Step One. Allow yourself thirty minutes of quiet, uninterrupted time to journal.
Step Two. Use a notebook that you are sure to keep. Step Three. Date your entry. Add your own title, but note
as well the chapter topic and your grade level.
Step Four. Write honestly. This journalism will not be graded. Your teacher will, however, check to see that it is completed.
Step Five. With your written permission, Bending Bamboo asks to use your journaling anonymously for purposes of Action Research. In this case, your teacher will make a copy of your entry, provide no attribution that this is your journaling, and work with Bending Bamboo colleagues
to assess your progress, and how useful you find the Bending Bamboo materials. Tell your teacher if you are willing to share your anonymous journaling. Thank you for considering this request.
