Week 8 Reading and Writing

Quote


I would say I enjoy the assignment every week! I have never blogged before and I never thought of myself as tech-savvy. Due to my lack of experience, I would say I am happy with my blog and website project website. I could now add this to my skill set, which wasn't very much in the first place. I would say I am satisfied with my progress in writing and story posts. I think I have developed more as a reader, story-teller, and writer. There are some things that I definitely need to improve on my writing skills, like grammar and doing a better job at revising. I also need to improve in conveying my stories and developing them further.
I would say my biggest accomplishment is just growing in my writing and creativity through my stories. My favorite readings so far were the stories from the Iliad. I was really proud of my story of Helen, although it probably needs revisions.
So far, just taking notes of what I read has been working for great! I've enjoyed our assignments so far and I am excited for the ones to come. I look forward to developing further in my writing skills, learning more stories, and writing more stories!

Week 7:Tar Baby Wins

  Tar Baby Wins  There once was this Rabbit called Brer Rabbit and a Fox called Brer Fox. They had this ongoing game where they would trick and outsmart each other with schemes they each devised. There was a particular day where Fox was tired of Brer Rabbit outsmarting him and starting scheming up a plan to show Brer-Rabbit who he really is. He gathered material and started working hard to trick Brer Rabbit. His final creation, which he made from tar mixed with turpentine, was called Tar-baby. He put a hat on this doll-like creature and placed her on the side of the road that he knows Brer-Rabbit takes. He hid in the bushes waiting for his plan to come to fruition. It did not take long for Brer Fox to hear the bold confident steps of Brer Rabbit. When Brer Rabbit passed by Tar-baby he looked surprised to see this figure with a hat just sitting on the side of the road. He got on his hind legs and looked at Tar-baby and then said, " Good morning! Pleasant weather we are having!
