Their Eyes Were Watching God Introduction

Tuesday, 2/25:
Today we read a timeline of Zora Neale Hurston's life, watched a short video about her, and then read and analyzed her nonfiction essay "How it Feels to Be Colored Me."

Thursday, 2/27:
We learned about regionalism, watched this video about Zora Neale Hurston, about Chubbtown (which is very much like the setting of the novel), and discussed the definition of dialect.
