How to submit your "CFA Task 1" Paragraph Response for the District Common Formative Assessment:
- Log in to Canvas by going to canyons.instructure.com **Make sure you type CANYONS not canvas.
- Login in using the same user name and password as you would for the school computers: first letter of you first name, first three letters of your last name, last four numbers of your student ID. Password: full student ID #
- On the top menu bar you should see "Courses", hover over and then select English Language Arts 10 or 10H.
- On the right hand side it should have a "To Do" which lists: "Turn in CFA Task 1". Click on that link and it will take you right to the "Submit Assignment" button.
- You can submit either a word document or a website url if you wrote your draft in google docs.
- For a file upload: Click "Browse"-->find your file name-->click "Choose", then click "Submit Assignment".
- Success! A green check mark should appear and the words "Submission Successful" or something along those lines.
- Click on your submission and make sure that it opens your document--if it won't open it for you, it won't open it for me! Re-submit if necessary.

Hello all!
Today we worked with our short story "Harrison Bergeron" again. Yes, I know they are printed all sorts of crazy--come on, give a teacher a break! ;)
You are responsible for having asked three Level 3 questions about the text. Choose one of your questions and make your claim (example: Kurt Vonnegut is satirizing those individuals who believe giving equal rights to all would turn into a society like that of Harrison Bergeron), find your evidence for your claim by marking and annotating your text using your "Marking and Annotating Literary Text" handout (the neon green one--you can't miss it!).
You should end up with a chart like the ones we did for "Slip or Trip" and "The Lunchroom Murder":
Claim: ____________________________
Evidence: Choose 3 pieces of evidence
Rules/Warrants: 3 Rules/Warrants Explains why your evidence is relevant to your claim (check your "Warrants Examples" Handout for additional help with this.
Conclusion: ___________________________________
