We're Blowing Shrek Chunks!
Ok, it's a language arts term. A chunk is a group of sentences that form a unified thought. We have been practicing writing character analysis chunks using examples from the movie Shrek the Third. Here is an example from a group in 6th hour:
After being booed off stage during his dinner theater performance, the sobbing Prince Charming dejectedly retreats to his dressing room where he pleads for his mother and vows that he shall avenge her death. Charming is wallowing in depression because he misses his mother's constant doting and over-protective support. He seeks revenge against Shrek because he feels he is responsible for the murder of his mother and stealing the throne.
Not bad character analysis for a kid's movie!
In more important news, here are some big, upcoming DUE DATES that you should know about:
