Pyramid of abstraction continued: We continued our work with understanding the pyramid of abstraction. After reviewing the first two thresholds (5 senses and scene), we discussed the next two (dialogue--both internal and external, and gesture). Students used the pyramid to begin writing the first scenes of their short stories.
Core
Bellwrite #37: What is suffering? Describe a recent time when you suffered. How did you respond--behaviorally and mentally--to your suffering?
Students passed off part 6 of their memorization.
We discussed the Response to Suffering Log assignment. We also read together from Man's Search for Meaning.
We reviewed the cold war maps and I shared part of a presentation on the Cold War.
Homework:
- Begin working on the Response-to-Suffering log (due Monday).
- First scene of short story is due on Friday.
