Please write a chart about "The Behavior of Hawkweeds" or if you prefer "Rare Bird."
1. Place a question a-top the page.
--The question could come from your own thoughts about scientific pursuit and its relationship to emotion, OR
--you could use this as a question: what is the relationship between scientific pursuit and emotion?
--a third possibility would be to ask a question about one OR the other: "what are scientist like according to this story?" OR How do emotions make life more complex in this story?" Feel free to use these questions if you want to.
2. Write in a relaxed, thinking, enjoying-yourself way about how a quotation from the story helps you figure out an answer to the question at the top of the page. (Insert the quotation in the top left hand corner). Keep writing longer than you first feel like writing--you'll get somewhere good! Try writing about the denotation and/or connotation of an important word or two.
3. At the bottom of the page, sum up your thinking, or your most valuable discovery.
4. Go on and do the same thing for three other quotations. Stay relaxed.
Please remember to bring your grammar worksheet back with you.
