Willow Davenport's Narrative Analysis

The narrative written by Judith Ortiz Cofer discusses some of the many experiences she has encountered throughout her life dealing with stereotypes and common misconceptions of Latin American women. To further engage her audience in the story, she provides detailed past experiences that have stood out to her the most. In order for the readers to fully understand those past encounters, some of which are cultural and common among Latinos, Cofer explains them in careful detail.

Assuming the office of chief Superintendent of Education in Upper Canada, Egerton immediately swung into action as he continued to make countless creative, as well as, extensive changes targeted to remodelling the Upper Canada school system whose general control of the school was within his jurisdiction- the Chief Superintendent. Egerton had the prerogative to “set standards for the curriculum; supervised the training, inspection and examination of teachers; and oversaw the selection and distribution of textbooks, through a central depository and press plant which encouraged the publication of works by home-grown authors. Libraries were organized in every school”. (Claude W.D, 2002, para 7)

I thought they were happy to see me, but when I opened the door to our shack, I saw that everything we owned was neatly packed in cardboard boxes. I was shocked! We were moving? Since when? I walked further into our shack and saw Roberto and Papa carrying boxes to the Carcanchita. I then saw Mama holding her pot walking over to the Carcanchita very carefully trying her best to not step on one of my younger sibling’s toys.

Erik Larson uses repetition to tell his readers how much it would take for Olmsted to complete his task on time and how stressful it was. Larson uses the would “if” to communicate to his readers that there is a chance that everything could work out but “if” one of these does not, then they fail. By repeating “if” repeatedly Larson’s readers understand that there are many different things that, in order for the fair to be complete on time, need to go right. So by using this repetition Larson communicates to his readers how stressed they were about the fair. Therefore, this repetition that Erik Larson uses allows his readers to understand how stressed they all were about all the factors that needed to go right in order for the fair to be completed

In the essay, “The Storyteller,” Sandra Cisneros discusses how she didn’t let her family's’ traditions interfere with her passion to become a writer. Despite the fact that her father loathed the idea of her moving out without being married, her desire for independance lead her to leave. She finally got her silent home to “listen to the voices inside herself” while becoming inspired by all of her trinkets. Every decision she makes revolves around her writing; it influences every aspect of her life. Cisneros emphasizes the role that family has on your dreams and her ambition to pursue them no matter what.

I went to listen to the psych speak Sarah Jerstad. This was actually my first time going to one the Psych talks and I did not know what to expect. All I knew was that the speaker is a child psychologist. At the talk Sarah gave a brief summary of her journey from being a college student at St. Olaf to her current career as a child psychology. Through her career journey she offered advices here and there. One of the thing she talked about that stuck with me is that going to graduate school right after college isn’t the next step for everyone. This is something that I myself have been thinking about and struggling with for quite some time. Sarah talked about how she did not go to graduate school right away, instead she worked as a research assistant

we get to see Reyson while he is driving while the narration continues. As he pulls into another parking lot, we can see that the weather is becoming darker, cloudier. As Reyson steps out of the vehicle and retrieves his duel disk, we hear a clap of thunder and it slowly begins to rain. Reyson turns around and we see a figure clothed in black suit, his face hidden by a balaclava and sunglasses

For now though she’ll sit poised at the front of the high school math room and have them swarm to her like bees to honey, as it should be.
