2 Warm-up When do we write Titles in Italics, and when do we write titles in quotations. COPY THE FOLLOWING ITALICS (or underlined) are used primarily to punctuate the titles of full-length works that are published separately.  Books (Published Separately, Newspapers, Magazines, Titles of works that include shorter works (Collections), plays, and longer poetical works. To Kill a Mockingbird (Novel) or To Kill a Mockingbird The Crucible (Drama) or The Crucible Rolling Stones Magazine People (Magazine) The Short Stories of Ernest Hemingway (Collection) The Odyssey (Epic Poem in book form) Always Sunny in Philadelphia (TV Show) “QUOTATIONS”: Quotation marks are used to punctuate titles of short works and parts of other works--i.e., titles of those works that are not published separately. Poem titles, short story titles, essays, newspaper and magazine ARTICLES; Shorter works in general. Small works that compose the larger whole. “The Fly” by John Donne (Poem) “A Rose for Emily” by William Faulkner (Short story) “Hills like White Elephants” Ernest Hemingway (Short story from Hemingway collection “Man Freezes Body and Lives Three-Hundred Years” (Newspaper article) “Kitten Mittens” (Always Sunny… Episode)

3 Rewrite the following sentences, correctly Italicize / underline use quotation marks where needed putt in quotation marks where needed. I open up the newspaper to the article Fools Gold For Free that my friend told me about over dinner last night. We were told we had to read the novel Uncle Tom’s Cabin because its setting is historically significant. When we went to the bookstore, I went straight to the magazine section to pick out my favorite magazine to read on Sunday, Cosmopolitan. Our school put on a dramatic production of Shakespeare’s Richard III. I watch my favorite TV show The Big Bang Theory every other Tuesday night; my favorite episode is Robo-Dating Wallowitz. We read the epic poem The Fairy Queen in College, but it was nothing like Homer’s The Odyssey. I love reading Robert Frost’s short poem The Road Less Traveled By. I read Sierra’s short poem which she entitled The Cricket. During our short story unit, we read The Blind Man by D.H. Lawrence. I stared in anger at the article Girl Falls Asleep on Bus written about me in our local paper. We read a collection of horror stories by ten American writers; The Fall of the House of Usher by Edgar Alan Poe is the first story we read from the collection. Turn this in when you are finished.

4 “Judy Baca’s Art for Peace”
I am going to give you your stories back. We are going to tell our story in a visual form by creating a mural. You can use APPROPRIATE magazine pictures, but you must represent your story through this collage / mural. This can help us to understand our story in a form other than words. Sometimes, we do not want our story shared in words for personal reasons; using art to express our stories and our feelings during these times can serve as a coping mechanism. Gallery Walk. Put your name on the back of your collage. Pass your collage in. I will redistribute them on a desk that is not yours. We will do an anonymous gallery walk around the room. Gallery Walk. Make note of two collages that you find interesting being sure to include why your classmates collage interests you. Exit note: Explain your collage / mural and why you believe it represents your articulation of “your story.” What images did you choose to you and how do your images tie into your written story.
