Jennifer- TP 06- 9/22/10
Today I decided to switch it up a bit and I met Woon Jee for lunch for our tutoring session. I wanted to try and simulate a casual lunch experience that she might encounter with another one of her American friends. I brought a part of the Tallahassee Democrat (specifically the Limelight section) for us to read over together and discuss as we ate. I explained to Woon Jee that the Limelight is a section of the newspaper that comes out twice a week, Wednesdays and Fridays, and usually contains a list of all the activities that will be going on that weekend (movies, art exhibits, special festivals, music concerts, plays, etc). I let Woon Jee have the paper and asked her to read out any of the events that she thought sounded interesting. She found an 80’s party that she thought sounded fun, and she was also very excited when she found a write up about the Art&Soul event for LeMoyne. She did have a few questions about some of the titles for the small articles they had about the upcoming movies that debuted that week. I told her that most of them contained some sort of play on words that pertained to the movie that they were associated with (ex. “Owl of a Story” for the Legend of the Guardians:The Owls of Ga'Hoole).
