Emerson Presentation Day #2

1) Jacqueline:

• Did a self- reliance poster
• put quotes from the essay
• had main ideas (self-reliance)
• had paragraphs and translated them
• "No one should change for anyone"
• "Start changing for ourselves"

2) Ale and Rosie:

• "Why would we be born and original if we're going to die a copy"
• Represented presentation by eggs
• We get cracked under pressure
• BE YOURSELF
• was memorable since I've never seen a presentation with food examples

3) Lilly:

• Presentation with brussels sprouts
• "Farmers believes in them even though most of us hasn't even eaten them"
• Part of Emerson because they believe in themselves even though most of the people hate them

After presentations were done Dr.Preston told us to write down "extended metaphor".

extended metaphor: refers to a comparison between two unlike things that continues throughout a series of sentences in a paragraph or lines in a poem.
