History of Virginia pg 94 Orange
*What changes
do you think were made when Smith wrote it, why? (annotate or
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?
*When done,
read your book!! HOMEWORK IF YOU AREN'T DONE!
*ACT Packet
Discussion
*Finish evaluating essays 2-4
*Homework: In Writer’s
Notebook: Is the media (TV, movies, books, internet, etc) responsible
for accuracy? Do they need to be 100%
true accounts if they are using a true event for ‘inspiration’? How accurate do shows/movies/books/sites need
to be? Support your
opinions with details/logical arguments.
