Hi Christine! I just noticed this graphic you have for your comment wall. That is FABULOUS! You probably won't get so many comments here since you are doing the Portfolio (so people will probably leave comments on the actual posts)... but I am grabbing a copy of this graphic to save for my growth mindset files: it is perfect!!!
I read your Pyramus and Thisbe story because I had to translate it from Latin last semester and was interested in seeing the spin you put to the story. I was not disappointed! The way that you made Thisbe such a relatable adolescent character—one who was desperate to go out and live the life that she believed she was destined to have. It is just so relatable. And oh young love! You did such a good job of writing the mindset of a young couple falling deeply in love. I liked how you made the story a little more relatable too—it is kind of hard to feel bad for a couple who constantly miss each other in the night and get more and more dramatic as the hours pass. But I also really liked how you ended the story on a more positive note than the original. It’s a nice reprieve. Good job!
