Reflections on second week of classes
It has been a full week. In most classes we were able to complete the introductions. We'll complete these next week after the long Labor Day weekend. I hope you have a chance to get over to the SF Shakespeare production http://www.sfshakes.org of The Tempest at the Presidio. The Bay Bridge is closed, but BART is running 24 hours Sept. 1-5. Visit http://www.baybridgeinfo.org/
If you go and write something you can have extra credit. You also need to attach the program.
Essay 2 is due next week also. The topic for all classes is: Hurricane Katrina one year later. Make sure you complete the essay planning sheet before you write and attach it to your draft on Tuesday, along with a bibliography or works cited page. For English 201, and English 251, you can attach the articles to your essay.
I mentioned the Times-Picayune http://www.nola.com/t-p/ as a news source. Vary your sources, so that you can have a broader perspective. You might also look at the Democracy Now website http://www.democracynow.org/search.pl?query=hurricane+katrina.
I'm really excited about your literature circles beginning next week and I hope the groups work out to everyone's satisfaction. If you are having any problems pull me aside and let me know. Don't just drop out or stop participating. I am interested in your success.
In My Life in the Bush of Ghosts for English 1A, we are up to p. 104 for Wednesday. You are to keep a log for each chapter. Include a list for words you do not know the meanings of or how to pronounce. You are to also explore ideas discussed in the novel, plus discuss the characters, note descriptions, comment on scenes, themes, etc.
Here are some additional sources for Amos Tutola. Visit the links noted in the article also to read more http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amos_Tutuola.
For all texts, look at the work from the perspective of a reader and a writer. As a writer think about the author's style and how they do what they do.
In The Pact students need to read the introduction, chapters 1, 2, and 3. Don't forget to respond in your notebooks. Visit their website http://www.threedoctorsfoundation.org/.
More later. I have a class to get to now.
