Today was our kick-off into Invisible Man. We read the Prologue together and completed our motif chart together. Remember that this section of the novel is actually the end - as he says, "the end is in the beginning" - so as you move into Chapter 1, you'll notice big differences in his voice, style, and attitude. One of our main questions is "How did he end up this way?" The novel will help us answer that.
One suggestion as you read this novel is to build connections to other texts we have read. Seeing how DuBois's ideas are brought into the chapter - especially with this idea of distorted vision - may help you interpret the text.
Next class is asynchronous. There will be a Google Form posted for you to complete for your work. You'll also have access to your returned research paper tasks and the final rubric, focus on drafting to prepare for submission at the end of the month. Reach out for help - I'll do what I can.

This week our goal is to decide on a piece in the museum/space we've been studying which will be our focus for the final step of our project. Next class, you'll have time to finish any of the previous steps that you missed, and move forward with your research on your chosen piece.
I hope that you all appreciated the time to meet with each other and share your findings so far. If you're not so interested in what you're looking at so far, maybe the work of a peer can take us in a new direction to help us find an interest we didn't know we had. Use the recordings to resubmit your Drag and Drop or other assignments for this unit so far.
Remember that Thursday/Friday will be asynchronous. There will be a Google Form posted for you to log your attendance and do your work for class. Use the class time as you need to - get caught up or get ahead, but no matter what, keep moving forward.
