This is what we did today:
1.) We watched a lecture by JJ Abrams (http://www.ted.com/talks/j_j_abrams_mystery_box.html) about how stories of all kinds have mysteries or questions. These mysteries create suspense and intrigue, and keep us thinking and guessing, which makes us active participants vs. passive "lumps" as we read/view.
2.) Review and worked on questions for the short story "The Sniper." Questions due next block (Tuesday, September 27, 2011)
