Today we started with the Vocabulary 13 Quiz. Then, we went over the words and definitions for Vocabulary 14 (due May 10, 2010). After that, we edited the essays from Japan. I posted one below, if you missed it. Next, we discussed the poetry homework. Finally, we talked about how we make meaning when reading creative writing. We briefly analyzed the histories of 2 students, and thought about how the "movies in their heads" would be different when reading creative writing. We make meaning out of the prior experiences we have and the pictures we create in our head (among a few other things), and this means there will be different interpretations of texts, and different meanings for different people.
For Friday, we've got a WIBR party:
P1. Adam, Brittany, Kelly, John C., Rhiannon
p3. Arshia, Timothy, Catherine, Courtney
Also, will all the people I requested to e-mail me their essays, please do so by Friday (so do it like, now). Please e-mail me at ankenym@uci.edu. Thank you!
