Tuesday, October 10

English 12A: Today we focused on Chapter 5 (or 4, depending on your edition), "Now Where Have I Seen Her Before?" from How to Read Literature Like a Professor and how it, along with Chapters 18 ("If She Comes Up..."), 1 ("Every Trip Is a Quest"), and 12 ("Is That a Symbol?"). You can find a PDF version of the text here at https://mseffie.com/assignments/professor/How%20to%20Read%20Literature%20like%20a%20Professor%202nd.pdf

We had a short discussion about how these ideas are prevalent in Life of Pi and began an essay project which can be found on our Canvas web page.

CNF: Today we watched the Ted Talk "The Future of Lying" and continued to read both Chapter 1 from Freakonomics and the article titled "Why We Lie" from National Geographic.
