Introduction:
This week we will be reading a collection of short stories from minority authors. As you read the stories work on analyzing themes, characters, and context. Not only the setting of the story is important but also the setting of the author in real life. How do these intertwine with each other? This can include political or social aspects of the author’s life. As you read the story also think about the
author’s life to include challenges.
Learning Objective: Key elements of analyzing short stories
Here is where you will write your own thoughts and comments on this week’s reading. You are also welcome to add any questions you have and any student is welcome to answer. Think of this like a Book Club and we are discussing the book. There is no right or wrong
answer.
