@ElaSaloni You expertly engaged us all with your uplifting, confident voice and attitude, and laid down the facts just as hard as your initiative. Great job! #HNRS0124
Dr. Chris speaks publicly as if he's speaking privately. He doesn't formalize his words with a robotic approach, but rather, he talks with the vigor, enthusiasm, and pacing of a casual conversation. He uses his face and entire body to show his speech's emotions/mood. #HNRS0124
An effective public speaker uses both their limbs and their voice to speak. Their words engage the audience and express appropriate emotional variation, while they use parts of their body like their hands, eyes, and face to guide a point or signal a certain mood. #HNRS0124
@jameslopez_NBT As Ruth and Mama argue about not moving due to expenses, Walter's entrance and his announcement that he plans to partner with Willy Harris to better their circumstances add a sudden shift in mood to the plot, with Mama's worried expressions making the situation tenser. #HNRS0124
@jameslopez_NBT As the Youngers joyfully celebrate their new home in Clybourne Park, everyone is tempted to leave the yard when they notice judging peeks from their white neighbors, except for Beneatha. Instead, she expresses her joy with the new house to her neighbors and ignores any tension.
@jameslopez_NBT Walter and Ruth begin dancing as Walter puts on some music. To me, this shows how their attitudes have changed. They have become so comfortable now that not only are they smiling and pleased, but even have the energy to dance and celebrate. #HNRS0124
In this unit, I've gained several new insights into the H. Renaissance and the CRM. For one, I learned about an incident I hadn't learned much about before, the Tulsa Massacre. This specific incident is one that I believe truly highlights the injustice and ignorance of the time.
@jameslopez_NBT Personally, a black athlete that I have long-admired is Muhammad Ali. I feel that he was one of the people who displayed how one could climb from the depths of society to its surface and become successful simply by consistently putting a great amount of effort into his passions.
