Holler Assignments: Presentations

We are going to make presentations on Holler next week. You will present as groups. Each group will have 15 minutes to present their chapter(s). There will be some overlap. Be creative and use music indicative of the chapter you are presenting. Also, be theatrical. Bring to life some of the key characters Dyson mentions.

I will give you time to meet with the other person presenting with you tomorrow after we review Point of View (essay 3) exercises. Bring in questions. The essay will be due Wednesday, October 7, typed. We'll work on Essay 4 in class Wednesday.

If you were absent I'll give you a chapter to work on with other students who were also absent. I want you to do this in pairs. If you need to draft other students the day of the presentation to help with a skit that's fine. Trade phone numbers with your partner and meet outside of class at least twice to work out the details of the presentation. Again, the goal is to bring the chapter to life and show Tupac in all his glory.

I'd also like students to incorporate a poem from The Rose That Grew from Concrete in the presentation. If you need technology, let me know in advance.
