My reading for this week came from the African unit, West Africa. I really enjoyed reading this unit as it had a lot of interesting stories. I actually decided to read another unit from the African unit for Week 7 as well. I like how the stories are told. The writing style is cool and I enjoy reading through each story to get to the ending and see what the moral of the story is. It's nice to be able to relate that to the entire story and see how it connects and what specific things led to it. The story I retold was based off of the story calling "Anansi and Nothing." This would probably be where my best writing for the week came from. I decided to switch up my writing style for this story and write it in a form of letter. However, the reader doesn't know it's a letter until they get to the very ending where not only that is revealed, but so is the identity of the speaker. I've never really wrote a story in this way so I was interested to see how it would turn out and I think I'm content with it (so far).
The past week nothing too crazy went on. Just the regular school and classes. I had a couple of quizzes here and there but thankfully there wasn't any tests. But, on the other hand, I'm excited that this upcoming week is a short one due to
OU/Texas. I think that extra day off is much needed. I'm trying to make sure I try to use that day to my advantage and set a goal to get ahead, but honestly I might just sleep the whole day away. We'll see! It doesn't hurt to have goals though, right?
