Friday February 1!!

Happy Friday!!

Today in class we did the following:
1. Gallery Walk
2. Intro Eyes/Zora!!!!!!!!!!!
3. Eyes page 1
4. Checked out Eyes

Homework:
1. Read Ch. 1 and 2 of Eyes
2. Eyes Journal 1:  Identify two important choices Hurston makes in the first two chapters; these choices should be literary techniques. Then, for each choice, find examples (what), explain how Hurston treats the technique (how) and the effect of the technique. Your journal entry should NOT be in the form of a thesis but rather a few exploratory paragraphs. This assignment is meant to show your thought process, not necessarily be a summative assessment of your understanding of the text. That being said, to receive credit, you must show thoughtful, insightful work (and include examples from the text).
REMEMBER: If your effect is cliche, I will cry (and not in an "oh, you moved me to tears" way in an "oh, the humanity" way).
