Kudos to everyone that participated in our Journey Through Time Tea Party & Mixes on Monday.

Now that everyone has had a chance to “break the ice” in character, it’s time to see where you are in your research and begin to dig deeper beyond the basic facts about yourself. So…

Everyone was given a copy of JTT Focus Questions today. There are 10 of them. They are not meant to be answered by everyone. Choose the ones to research further that make the most sense for you based on your character. Choose the ones that you best understand first. We will talk more on Wednesday about the questions and how to use them to dig deeper into your character.

If the link above to the JTT Focus Questions does not work, here they are:

1. What did you do and how?

2.  How did you influence history/impact the world?

3. What was the historical context in which the person lived?

4. What were the choices you made?

5. Did  you take  action or choose inaction?

6. What events led to your making the decision?

7. What was the outcome of the decision?

8. Did the your actions result in a legacy?

9. Now, in reflection in 2013, what do you think about yourself and your impact?

10. What will your impact be in 100 years?

—How will people/world view you then?

—How will you view yourself?
