Oh, yes. We are back. The Heritage English 10 classes are better than ever. We will immerse ourselves in The Art of Storytelling this semester.
Our introductory unit is based on studying the art of storytelling so we may become skillful storytellers ourselves. We will be reading the following texts:
- "Please Don't Take My Air Jordans" by Reg E. Gaines
- "Flowers" by Alice Walker
- Selected stories from Krik? Krack! by Edwidge Danticat
- "Raymond's Run" by Toni Cade Bambara
- Blindspot by Kevin Pyle
Our final project is a visual storytelling in clay tiles. Students will choose their own stories to tell through literal figures, symbols, and abstractions. The tiles will be accompanied by an artist's statement. Stay tuned for more details!
