This week we really started to get into working on our What is Literature? project and I have started to understand what we are doing for it. My group is working on structure and point of view. I think we chose good topics to work on because they are easy to follow and I understand them well. Also, the short stories we chose to read are very interesting and easy to get into. I enjoy them. I believe doing the close read on the short stories and the element of fiction packets are really useful because it makes me pay more attention to what I'm reading so I can take notes and helps me to understand what I am reading. Consciously trying to recognize the element of fiction in the short story that I am reading help me get more into the story and really pay attention to what is going on. My group has just finished reading our elements of fiction and short stories so hopefully in the next week we are able to begin working on our presentation and work on making it the best we can. We will be using prezi, which is not something that I am used to using so I have been looking over this http://www.computerworld.com/article/2472129/web-apps/82161-10-tips-for-giving-killer-presentations-with-prezi.html to make our presentation better. Last week, I really did not know what I was doing or what this project really was due to the delays we had. This week, when the project was explained more in depth to the whole class, I was able to really understand what we are doing. So know, I am better informed and I feel better about going into the presentations.
