Reflection of Class on 4/16

Class on Thursday started with an activity in small groups. We began discussing our final project and any problems that we have had. We then analyzed a Biblical script from 4 varying types of English. It was interesting to see the different ways in which Modern English would write raven or dove in comparison with the older versions of English.

Someone in my group brought up the different word orders of each version and I thought that was interesting too. Personally, when I looked at the script, I noticed there were different names for 'Noah' and the word arc, ark, or Arke. I wonder how such a subtle difference came about.

Then class then got back together and discussed our findings from analyzing the different versions of English. It seems everyone came up with most of the same ideas.

Thankfully, Esther showed us an example of the final project and I feel much more clear about what I am suppose to do and less anxious. The final project actually seems achievable!
