In week 7, all of us had the chance to pick out another S.S.R. novel for the upcoming 6 weeks. I chose to read, A Prayer For Owen Meany, by John Irving, as an author study. My family and friends around me, for years, have suggested that I read this book. I am looking forward to diving into it as time moves on. This week, a lot of work was done on our What is Lit. project. My favorite moment from class, in relation to this project, was seeing Andy perform tour guide A and tour guide B. The biggest difference between the two was that, tour guide B was able to make jaws drop. Tour guide B made a lasting impact on the audience, one that attracted the audience, attracted me to learn a little bit more of the mysteries of the Statue of Liberty There was a major difference between the two, and I gained the most understanding of how to guide the audience through that presentation. For our presentations, next week, it will be key to dive in and use the tools we discussed. Some of those tools included extending beyond or the "so, what?" In other words, how can the audience use what you're talking about in the future, or apply it to their own life. Not many will be able to take away elements of literature and apply it to their own situations, unfortunately, yet should enhance them of something they did not previously know.
