Weekly work...

These are time sensitive. You do not receive credit if you write them after the deadline each week.

First, there's a blog entry (about 250 words) which will have you respond to a hopefully thought-provoking question. Each week, you must do the blog entry with enough time left in the week to be able to enter into dialogue online with your classmates. Write, reply, write more, reply more, and then write and reply more.

Second, there's a reading. There’s no blog entry associated with this. Just read.

Third, there's a written response to the reading. Your reading and writing on the blog must be completed by the SATURDAY (by midnight) of the week in which the reading falls. This entry should be a long paragraph. YOU DO NOT NEED TO RESPOND TO OTHER STUDENTS' PART THREE EACH WEEK.'

TC BOYLE'S TORTILLA CURTAIN

Start to read this this week. We will use it to write our in-class essay on Saturday, October 10th. You do not need to finish it, but I think you will find it a quick read on a fascinating and important subject. Be sure you have gotten through about half of the book.
Also, note from the beginning that each chapter is told from a different voice. So the first chapter is from the voice of one character; the second chapter is told form the voice of another character.
Enjoy!
