*Bell Ringer:
Collect Myths (rubric
paper clipped to the story, turned into the blue crate, first block folder)
*Finish
paragraph from Friday (Cultural Encounters Message). Then, working
individually: do you think
either of these (de las Casas’ and Equiano’s) accounts changed the audience?
How? Why yes or no? If no, what could they have done to more affect their
audience? (comment on my blog): Read your book when you are done. Remember, you need the book finished and a creative one-pager created by the last week of the quarter.
*Notes on
Jamestown and John Smith
*General History of
Virginia pg 94 Orange
*What changes
do you think were made when Smith wrote it, why? (lists of details most likely
true and those most likely altered) Is this a true witness account or fiction?
Why?(reliable narrator) Why third person narration?
*Look at what
he says about self as compared to what he says about others
*What was
Smith’s purpose (or purposes) in writing General History… What details are included or possibly taken out that
helped accomplish his purpose
*What does
Smith’s account say about Pocahontas?
