Just a reminder that the two Lucy Grealy memoirs and their logs are due on December 6! If you have not finished your first text, you may want to do so prior to Thanksgiving break so that you do not feel that procrastinator stress that often occurs with a last-minute lengthy assignment. We have just received more copies of both texts, so starting next week, there will be plenty available! Just in time!
1: We worked on the tone map for "The Children's Hour," which we have half-completed at this point. If you were not here for this work, you will need to bring in your own draft a tone map for the text, so that you can participate in our analysis and discussion portion. We will be moving quite quickly through our remaining tone texts, so make sure you have your own personal copies, have previewed the poems and now context of words, allusions, and general meanings.
3: We shared our EAR poem tone maps today and then read "To a Skylark" to prep for our eventual tone assessment. We had some strong epiphanies as the poem progressed, but there were still many not prepared for our tone texts. Having a personal copy can only help you in the long run, especially as we have just one more left to go.
5: Due to some technical difficulties, we had a shortened look at pathos and the emotional reactions to photography and advertisements. The Bird prompt is due on Tuesday, so feel free to work on this early!
