1. Journal #44: Relate the "Bare Necessities" of Baloo in The Jungle Book with the teachings of Transcendentalism, both in a general way and as evinced by Emerson in Nature.
2. You were given a worksheet entitled "Top 6 Signs that you might be a transcendentalist." Of the six, chose the one tenet you most relate to. Explain how and why you relate to it as Journal #45. For the remaining five, write three to five sentences describing what you think the tenet means and how you DO or DO NOT relate to its meaning. You may do this right on the worksheet if you'd like.
3. Emersonian aphorisms exist on page 222 of the text. Choose one or a few and expound upon its/their meaning as Journal #46. Explain the significanse or relate the importance to your own life. Or, simply explain how they evince transcendentalism as a whole.
