https://padlet.com/richnovack/aauwroipyiohia90 Here we will discuss Audre Lorde's "What My Child Learns of the Sea." Students in high school respond to the prompt: what do you find curious? Which quote do you find curious and why? They write for 10 minutes, non-stop, in response to that prompt, supporting their answer with quoted passages. Then, they read and respond to their peers in the comments.

Too true. No one gets out of childhood completely unscathed. But hopefully with a lot of love too]]> 2022-05-21 14:52:12 UTC https://padlet.com/richnovack/aauwroipyiohia90/wish/2193960798 richnovack https://padlet.com/richnovack/aauwroipyiohia90/wish/2193960882 I find curious that passage of “winters” that “ripen my own body”. For young people, they aren’t thinking about old age, this this poem beautifully brings together the old and the new.  This mother is looking at her daughers youth and trying to prepare her for the world. ]]> 2022-05-21 14:52:21 UTC https://padlet.com/richnovack/aauwroipyiohia90/wish/2193960882
