Sorry, you need to do this on your own.

Use your imagination.\n\nAnd maybe you could  ask someone else in your class what they think about the whole thing.

Type "Greek Mythology" or "Roman Mythology" in the Yahoo search bar. It gives you a lot of choices to choose from.

the book "the cay" was used in a lit circle reading for 8th grade. In the Cay he goes through a big transformation so a really cool project to show that is this:\n\n1. At the begining of the book have all the kids draw a collage representing one of the 2 main characters.\n\n2. At the end of the book have them do the same thing but since the characters have changed the symbols will be different.\n\n3. Have them write a paragraph on how the character has changed and how that's represented in the collage.\n\n   This will illustrate change for them and is a lot of fun to do. Hope you like this idea.

I taught 5th grade a few yrs ago. I liked using their literature stories and have the students pick a character and write the story from a different perspective. You can also allow them to write about their hobby,how would someone describe you if they came into your room and didn't know you?What will you be involved in in high school? What is your goal for 30 yrs of age? Write about fav sportsman. Who is their hero? What is a hero? Feelings about America? I once did a story on a bag of marshmallows and they wrote from the marshmallows veiw. It was a good topic. You can use everyday objects and lay one on each desk. Recently I had my grandkids write a story about 3 items that I picked for them. The items had nothing in common but they wrote great stories. They also made a story plan by filling out a form with the characters,problem,2 paragraphs about how to solve the problem,how it was solved, and wraping up in the last paragragh. The next time I let them pick the items but it took them forever to get them. I think they were trying to think up a story while looking for the items. I was actually working with one grandson who was behind in reading due to ADHD( Delux!). He learned some from the new ideas I found for him and it was nice that the others of about the same age wrote with him.PBS.com is where I got some of my ideas(games,worksheets,books) to help him this summer so he got caught up. "Mrs.McGowen Lots About Reading" in the PBS site is a great source and has many ideas on all subjects. Best wishes! I miss teaching but have my hands full with grandkids!

Stranger, the problem as I see it is that you do not understand the concept of myth.  You have no fundamental knowledge of what myth is trying to achieve.  So, let me educate you.  Let me give you a little something from Joseph Campbell, who is perhaps the world's foremost scholar of mythology. Among his many books are The Hero with a Thousand Faces, The Masks Of God, Myths To Live By, and Historical Atlas Of World Mythology.  The question and quote are taken from an interview given by Joseph Campbell in the 1980s.\n\n\n"Question - What does myth do for us? Why is it so important?\n\nAnswer, by Joseph Campbell - It puts you in touch with a plane of reference that goes past your mind and into your very being, into your very gut. The ultimate mystery of being and non-being transcends all categories of knowledge and thought. Yet that which transcends all talk is the very essence of your own being, so you're resting on it and you know it. The function of mythological symbols is to give you a sense of "Aha! Yes. I know what it is, it's myself." This is what it's all about, and then you feel a kind of centering, centering, centering all the time. And whatever you do can be discussed in relationship to this ground of truth. Though to talk about it as truth is a little bit deceptive because when we think of truth we think of something that can be conceptualized. It goes past that."\n\n\nDoes this help you to understand that there is MORE than the literal, in mythology?  In fact, myth challenges us to look past the imagery in order to find the deeper meaning.\n\nGood luck on our journey.

Be unique and let your writing speak for itself. Write a paper giving your opinion on a controversial matter or a hot topic in your school or community. Then either hang it up or pass it out at your school - campaigning with something like "Vote for me - School Journalist" or something similar to that.  Good Luck.

You could write about how McDonald's harming the Amazon http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060406/ap_on_sc/brazil_greenpeace_mcdonald_s;_ylt=AniIHB_QG6WmcgZhHFCJ5.es0NUE;_ylu=X3oDMTA3MzV0MTdmBHNlYwM3NTM-\nOr you could write about how they just found a fish that shows how we became land animals.  http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060406/ap_on_sc/landfish_fossil;_ylt=AiCnH27Kt.EACcRnJQpvRjus0NUE;_ylu=X3oDMTA3MzV0MTdmBHNlYwM3NTM-

I would give you a poem but I am sure you would not put my name as the person who wrote it.  You would probably use your name as the person who wrote it and I am sure your teacher wants you to write it.  Learn from the lesson she wants you to do and write it.  If I did give you one it would be plagerized.  good luck!

use you imagination. go deep and write about something that you may want to do in your life and name that character someone else. make it like you live on a farm and something spooky is going on or your on a plane and meet someone from a past life or your a low paying sales person who is  struggling through school to become some cooperate person, or that you are trapped in the mall with a friend and you can enter any store and tell about some experiences that you had in certian stores. things like that. use your imagination

I agree with the poster above, try to come up with an interesting fact about TJ, then weave that into your intro while at the same time introducing what's to come.  Try to pick a fact that you could use at the end to close and summarize in the same way.

First did you look up your statues? Then get your resources from books, articles, off line, etc. read every one of them carefully. You should have at least 5 good resources to quote from, then at the end of the paper you should put in your own words what you think about it. If I had more information on this particular paper I could help you write it. I had to write something similar in one of my college classes.

You could write one yourself.  Find a few websites on the subject, read them, and, then, in your own words, write down what you learned from your reading.\n\nA good way to start is to answer the questions who, what, when, where, how, how much, and why.  That should take up a page at least.

You could write a tale about a boy who procrastinated and how he learned not to do that in the future. Good luck with this, and remember to check your spelling.
