Listen to at least 15-20 minutes of “Trever Noah Says He Grew up ‘In The Shadow of a Giant’ (His Mom)“. What do you notice about Trevor Noah’s ability to share information about his life, including his relationship with his mother. Does he do more showing or more telling?

Consider the readings that you have done for this class thus far.

Your response should be six to ten sentences long.

Please watch this TED Talk by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. Please share one or two takeaways from the talk. Also, please share if this talk inspired you to look at your literacy narrative differently in any way. Your response should be four to seven sentences long.

I was inspired to write this piece just two weeks ago after I had accomplished a big goal that I had set in my life. The piece is a narrative (though, not a literacy narrative) and it is a reflection on a process that I went through. Please point out either what was effective or confusing (or both) about the piece. What resonated with you? What would have made it stronger (what did you still want to know)? Your response should be six to nine sentences long.
