Thurs. Sept. 7, 2017: Determining Reading Order

This was a rather interesting class. We discussed the place mats we created yesterday and came to some conclusions about student interest (likes and dislikes). The student then took charge and determined the order in which the course readings would be studied. The order they have chosen is listed below. What this means is that I will start with the first one and work my way through while meeting course objectives. In order to arrive at the list, students had to work together and discuss/argue their positions.
When we were finished, the students worked on understanding similes and metaphors.
