This month, the LCCT’s English
Students were challenged to Compose a 6-Word Memoir. Even though the assignment was limited to six words
in length, the big idea was to make sure that the author skillfully considered his
or her words so that each word counted! If you check out the title of this article, you'll see a 6-Word memoir! Here
are a few we collected that have a theme of the THANKSGIVING season:
Need food: will sell college fund. ~ Kylie Smith: HA 12, loving Thanksgiving dinner and dessert and leftovers
Really love food but still skinny. ~ Jenna Locke: CA 11, stealing food from Kylie's plate
Peanuts special. Christmas cards. Lotsa leftovers. ~ Mrs. McVicker, can't wait to spend time with family
Black Friday Shopping? Gotta work midnight... ~ Jeralynn DeNome: HA 12, waiting for a good sale
Turkey makes you sleepy like cats. ~ Douglas Quimby II: COT 10, praticing to be the next Rip Van Winkle
Fall often. Always get back up. ~ Linzy Miller: VT 10, understands that "fall" has two meanings
Be thankful; life is too short. - Marie Beahr: Cos 11, "Carpe Diem" is the first thing this gal says each day!
