AGENDA:
1. Understanding aphorisms
2. Write down two aphorisms within the videos and why you liked them (2 videos)
3. Essay writing.....
HW: Read 90-108; Select a prompt below. Begin an outline of where you might go with this essay. Begin with examples from the book - determine importance, meaning. Tomorrow prepare to turn in your outline and notes but first be prepared to discuss it within your group. This does not have to be anything formal. This is an idea generating assignment at this point. If we don't spend the time generating ideas - our papers will lack depth.
1) Morrie talked about the "tension of opposites" (p 40). Explore this as a metaphor for the book and for society.
2) Discuss the book in terms of structure, voice, and tone, paying attention to Mitch's use of flashbacks and other literary devices. How do his choices add to the meaning?
