I admit it has been a rocky start to this unit; however, I like to think of this time as a "growth period." Stepping outside your comfort zone is the first step to learning or experiencing something new and exciting. My reasoning for choosing such a dense novel is as follows: if you can extract meaning from a difficult book like One Hundred Years of Solitude and analyze the text, then it will easier with a less complicated novel.
The process of analyzing literature only gets easier with time and practice. You will reap the rewards of struggling through this. It will make you a better reader, a better writer and a better thinker.
I hope that you are proud of the work you have done this first week. I look forward to seeing what you have to say on Tuesday about Chapters 5-7.
Have a wonderful 4-day weekend!
