I know some of you had some questions about the Homework last night. Here is a re-modified version of the assignment to better help you complete it. 

Read the below passage from Collections “Quilt of a Country” that addresses our theme of Identity. Complete one of the levels below.

Level 1: Give 3 words that you think describes America’s identity based on the description below.
Level 2: Describe America’s identity in at least 3 sentences based on the description below.  
Level 3: Describe America’s identity in at least 3 sentences based on the description below.  What creates this identity? Provide evidence from the text.
America was built of bits and pieces like crazy quilts.
Patriotism is taking pride in the unlikely way we throw all of us together in a country and still are able to call it by one name. When photographs of the faces of all those who died in the World Trade Center are in one place, it will be possible to trace in the skin color, the shape of the eyes and the noses, the texture of the hair, a map of the world.  These are the representatives of a nation that somehow has one spirit. When it actually works, it’s a wonder.


If you have any comments or questions please leave them below!
