Objective: SWBAT Assess various ages of life to generate material used for “Age Poem” Creations. 3 December2013 Creative Writing CPA Do Now: Assess the following lines by Anne Lamott - “It's funny: I always imagined when I was a kid that adults had some kind of inner toolbox full of shiny tools: the saw of discernment, the hammer of wisdom, the sandpaper of patience. But then when I grew up I found that life handed you these rusty bent old tools - friendships, prayer, conscience, honesty - and said 'do the best you can with these, they will have to do'. And mostly, against all odds, they do.” ―Anne Lamott

The Seven Ages of Man By William Shakespeare (from "as you like it")All the world's a stage,And all the men and women merely players;And one man in his time plays many parts,His acts beeing seven ages. At first, the infant,Mewling an puking in his nurse's arms:And then the winning school-boy, with his satchelAnd shining morning face, creeping like snailUnwillingly to school. And then the lover,Sighing like furnace, with a woful balladMade to his mistress' eyebrow. Then a soldier,Full of strange oaths, and bearded like the pard,Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in quarrel;Seeking the bubble reputationEven in the cannon's mouth. And then, the justice,In fair round belly, with good capon lined,With eyes severe, and beard of formal cut,Full of wise saws and modern instances;And so he plays his part. The sixth age shiftsInto the lean and slipper'dpantaloon,With spectacles on nose, and pouch on side;His youthful hose well sav'd, a worl too wideFor his shrunk shanks; and his big manly voice,Turning again towards childish treble, pipesAd whistles in his sound. Last scene of all,That ends his strange eventful history,Is second childishness, and mere oblivion:Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.William Shakespeare . 1564-1616
