- Roger’s Letter to Mrs. Jones Performance Task: For this assignment, you are going to pretend that you are Roger fifteen (15) years later after the events in “Thank You, M’am.” You now feel like writing to Mrs. Jones, whom you have not seen in the last fifteen years. You are going to tell Mrs. Jones about your life, your family, and your plans for the future. Now is your opportunity to thank her if you desire to do so.
Suggestions (ONLY suggestions, which means these questions do not HAVE to be answered and are only here to get you
thinking about things he might write to her):
1. What have you been doing for the past fifteen years?
2. Did you graduate from high school? College?
3. Did you ever get arrested for anything?
4. Are you still in contact with your family?
5. What is your family doing?
6. Do you have a job?
7. Do you plan on staying at the same job in the future?
8. What did you learn from the incident with Mrs. Jones fifteen years ago?
9. Do you have a family of your own?
10. Do you wish anything was different?
February 2, 2024
Dear Mrs. Jones,
What will Roger say here? Think about this! Does he need to remind her who he is? Remember that he is now an adult, so he won’t have the same “voice” as he did when they last saw each other.
What might he share with her about his life? What is his life like?
Is there anything else he would want to say to her?
Sincerely,
Roger

02 FEBRUARY- FRIDAY:
- Roger’s Letter to Mrs. Jones Performance Task: For this assignment, you are going to pretend that you are Roger fifteen (15) years later after the events in “Thank You, M’am.” You now feel like writing to Mrs. Jones, whom you have not seen in the last fifteen years. You are going to tell Mrs. Jones about your life, your family, and your plans for the future. Now is your opportunity to thank her if you desire to do so.
Suggestions (ONLY suggestions, which means these questions do not HAVE to be answered and are only here to get you
thinking about things he might write to her):
1. What have you been doing for the past fifteen years?
2. Did you graduate from high school? College?
3. Did you ever get arrested for anything?
4. Are you still in contact with your family?
5. What is your family doing?
6. Do you have a job?
7. Do you plan on staying at the same job in the future?
8. What did you learn from the incident with Mrs. Jones fifteen years ago?
9. Do you have a family of your own?
10. Do you wish anything was different?
February 2, 2024
Dear Mrs. Jones,
What will Roger say here? Think about this! Does he need to remind her who he is? Remember that he is now an adult, so he won’t have the same “voice” as he did when they last saw each other.
What might he share with her about his life? What is his life like?
Is there anything else he would want to say to her?
Sincerely,
Roger
