You lets other folks git all de enjoyment out of 'em 'thout talkin' in any of it yo'self

Commentary- Tea Cake is doing the opposite as Joe Starks, he tells Janie to enjoy herself. When Joe told her that she is his and that the is like a trophy. This is why Janie is so interested in him because she has never met someone with that attitude.]]> 2018-05-15 21:20:39 UTC https://padlet.com/444004283/wa2g5rvxdn6g/wish/261022541 444004283 https://padlet.com/444004283/wa2g5rvxdn6g/wish/261803281 "How about playin' you some checkers? You  looks hard tuh beat"

Commentary- I think that this is a way that the author wants us to know that Tea Cake is totally different than Joe. Its shows that Tea Cake lets her do thing like play and have fun , unlike joe that just told her to work at the store.]]> 2018-05-18 04:07:01 UTC https://padlet.com/444004283/wa2g5rvxdn6g/wish/261803281 444004283 https://padlet.com/444004283/wa2g5rvxdn6g/wish/261803314 "But, Janie, Tea Cake, whilst he ain't no jail-bird, he ain't got uh dime to cry. Ain't you skeered he's just after yo' money-him being younger than you?"

Commentary- Maybe Pheobe is right and Tea Cake is just after her money? Is this why Jaine did not want to talk about Tea Cake at the beginning of the story? ]]> 2018-05-18 04:07:21 UTC https://padlet.com/444004283/wa2g5rvxdn6g/wish/261803314 444004283 https://padlet.com/444004283/wa2g5rvxdn6g/wish/261803352 "Janie way halfway down the palm-lined walk before she had a thought for her safety. Maybe this strange man was up to something! But it was no place to show her fear there in the darkness between the house and the store. He had hold her arm too. Then in a moment it was gone. Tea Cake wasn't strange.''

Commentary-Why would she say that Tea Cake was a stranger and then say that he isn't? And if he is up to something what is it and what does she mean? Why was she scared?]]> 2018-05-18 04:07:46 UTC https://padlet.com/444004283/wa2g5rvxdn6g/wish/261803352 444004283 https://padlet.com/444004283/wa2g5rvxdn6g/wish/261803375 "You'se too young uh 'oman tuh stay single, and you'se too pretty for de mens tuh leave yuh alone. You'se bound tuh marry''

Commentary- This is a way that many men treat women, they use they're time of weakness, they also complement there youth.]]> 2018-05-18 04:08:00 UTC https://padlet.com/444004283/wa2g5rvxdn6g/wish/261803375 444004283 https://padlet.com/444004283/wa2g5rvxdn6g/wish/261803456 "Janie wanted to ask Hezekiah about Tea Cake, but she was afraid he might misunderstand her and think she was interested. In the first place he looked too young for her."

Commentary- This connect to present day because it still happens now. When you like someone but you don't wantto make it obvious that you like them so you ignore them. This is something that almost everyone has done.]]> 2018-05-18 04:09:02 UTC https://padlet.com/444004283/wa2g5rvxdn6g/wish/261803456 444004283 https://padlet.com/444004283/wa2g5rvxdn6g/wish/262847981 "One night they went got a boat and went out hunting alligators."

Commentary- This connects to the movie "Beast of the Southern Wild", the movie has a clip that is a flashback to when Hushpuppy's mother was alive and it shows her killing an alligator because it was about to attack Hushpuppy's dad.]]> 2018-05-22 21:26:08 UTC https://padlet.com/444004283/wa2g5rvxdn6g/wish/262847981 444004283 https://padlet.com/444004283/wa2g5rvxdn6g/wish/262848094 "He drifted off into sleep and Janie looked down on him on him and felt a self-crushing love. So her soul crawled out from its hiding place"

That she has never had these feelings in her previous marriages.]]> 2018-05-22 21:26:38 UTC https://padlet.com/444004283/wa2g5rvxdn6g/wish/262848094 444004283 https://padlet.com/444004283/wa2g5rvxdn6g/wish/262848224 "t's hard trying to follow your shoe instead of your shoe following you"

Commentary-The third sentence is saying how much harder it is to put your first foot forward than have your second foot follow it. Which means that it is harder to start something than continuing it.]]> 2018-05-22 21:27:30 UTC https://padlet.com/444004283/wa2g5rvxdn6g/wish/262848224
