Hall of Fame Plaques

All English 10 students completed a hall of fame plaque (described below). Next week the English 10 teachers will be inducting a few students each day into that classroom's hall of fame. We can't wait to see all of the wonderful plaques and paragraphs.

Hall of Fame Plaque

Scenario:
It is the year 2061, 50 years since you graduated from Edina High School. Because you have accomplished so much since you graduated, Edina High School would like to honor you with an induction into the Edina High School Hall of Fame.

Objective:
Create a plaque that Edina High School may make for you in 50 years. Your plaque must adhere to the following requirements:

--Must be written in third person point of view
--Must be written in past tense
--Must contain at least 6 COMPLETE SENTENCES.
--Your paragraph should contain ZERO grammar, mechanics, usage, or spelling errors.
--MUST BE TYPED (Honestly, do you think EHS would honor you with a handwritten paragraph?)
--Include a picture of yourself.
--Make it pretty to look at—your classmates, as well as many future students, may view your plaque!

FYI: your plaque paragraph will be read by the teacher and displayed in the classroom.
