Week 1: A New Hope

This week being the first week of school, the main idea was getting comfortable and setting up an idea of what this year will bring. A few tasks were completed to get us started. We created these portfolios to record our work and progress. Independent reading books were chosen, my choice being The Trial by Franz Kafka. We established a poem will be read everyday before class begins to get us comfortable with poetry. Overall a productive week as far as an introduction goes. I feel comfortable in this class already. This blog entry sadly will be rather scant as we are only dipping our toes into the ocean we'll be exploring in this year together. Nevertheless, this week was interesting and very important to getting the class acclimated to the atmosphere of an advanced literature class. I believe we all have a sense of what is expected of us in this class and I hope that we will all be successful in achieving this expectation.

Hi Christina,

The post does a fine job of sharing what we did in class and I would like to see you dig into a few of the ideas a bit more to clarify your understanding. I love your voice in the piece and get the sense that your inquisitive nature will help you grow in this class. Please be sure to add a link that goes beyond the class website.

Take care.
