We started the class out with a quick introduction, and then went into a class discussion about chapters 1-3 of ‘Life of Pi’.

Fish Bowl Summary

- First words of the book, “My suffering left me sad and gloomy”.

-What does that say about the character?

-What mood does that imply the rest of the book is going to have?

-Why talk about pools for 3 whole pages?

-What is Pi telling us?

-What is the author telling us?

-Foreshadowing?

-Pi’s family aversion to the water…

-Chapter 2

- Who is speaking?

- Are they speaking about Pi?

- Interesting perspective on how we look at ourselves vs. how other people look at us.

-Will these changes of perspective continue in the rest of the book?

Then Smith handed out a class expectations worksheet that we all signed, you will need to do that when you get to class tomorrow. (Picture attached)
