Hey students!?!?.... Yeah???.... Hey students!!!!!.... Yeah....
Thanks for an awesome Monday and Tuesday! Based on what you've told us, you really like the blog and are finding it useful!
In our Period C class today we introduced a new term that we want to share with you all.
If you noticed, the novel begins with Janie coming back from somewhere. This strategy is called in media res. Writers use this strategy usually to engage their audience so they will continue to read. Also, so the reader can begin to formulate their own opinions of 'what happened?' to the protagonist.
You will see this strategy used a lot in all mediums of storytelling whether it is in written, auditory, or video form. THIS IS USED A LOT IN MOVIES!
See you soon!
Julian and Carolyn
