Answer the following:
1. What did you think of this narrative?
2. What was most interesting or engaging about it?
3. What surprised you?
4. Did this change your outlook on Helen Keller at all? Why or why not?
5. Copy and paste three examples of vivid detail and imagery that helped enhance the story
6. How can a narrative be more engaging than something like a biography? Why is it important to get someone's personal perspective?
7. Make a bulltted lists of some things you could write a narrative about
1. I thought this narative was sad but also uplifting. i thought it was sad because this little girl is deaf and blind and at the same time its uplifting because she accomlished so much with her life despite being deaf and blind.
2. What i thought was most interesting was the teaching method Hellens teacher used with her. I would have no idea where to start in teaching a child, much less a deaf and blind one.
3. What suprised about this story is that Hellen Keller is the author. It shows how far she actually came despite her handicaps.
4. This story gives me more respect for Hellen Keller. Before all i knew about her was that she was deaf and blind. Now i know that she could read and write also.
5. 1) Have you ever been at sea in a dense fog, when it seemed as if a tangible white darkness shut you in, and the great ship, tense and anxious, groped her way toward the shore with plummet and sounding-line, and you waited with beating heart for something to happen?
2) We walked down the path to the well-house, attracted by the fragrance of the honeysuckle with which it was covered. Some one was drawing water and my teacher placed my hand under the spout.
3) On entering the door I remembered the doll I had broken. I felt my way to the hearth and picked up the pieces. I tried vainly to put them together. Then my eyes filled with tears; for I realized what I had done, and for the first time I felt repentance and sorrow.
6. A narative is more engaging than a biography because it gives more perspective and detail. I feel it is important to get someones perspective in a narative especially if the narrative is about them because after all it is their story so it woudn't do them justice if it came from someone else.
