Please go to the essay linked below, "Superman and Me."
Actively read, annotate and evaluate the aesthetic qualities of Alexie's essay (how are imagery, details, and figurative language used to enhance your understanding?) and the efferent qualities (what is Alexie's purpose, and what does he hope to teach his audience through this didactic essay?). Handout provided in class for this (if absent, complete on lined paper).
Sherman Alexie's "Superman and Me"
Also, for homework, please read Frederick Douglass' "Learning to Read and Write" in the 100 essays book, pp. 216-221. It is also linked below:
