After vocab experts, I had the opportunity to finish the official assignment of the Lucy Grealy memoirs and assigned log, which you will be working on until December 5 (or earlier, if you happen to not procrastinate this assignment). At this point, you have your first memoir and can start the process of reading and analyzing. While the first deadline window is not until November, that is still only 2 weeks away, so stick with it!
Our main course today was our first team close read, featuring the Alcott package and its perspective of nursing and patient in the Civil War. From your classmates detailed close reading skills, you have a plethora of rhetorical strategies to help explicate the purpose of the passage. With your close reading team, you have a team thesis and rhetorical strategy paragraphs to write for the start of next class. If absent, you will have this passage next time and will be completing the assignment solo.
