This definitely wasn't your typical english compostion class. Instead of reading about the foundation of the english language we learned about the history and struggles of the Native American culture. But I can say that I enjoyed every minute of it. I have to admit thatb I didn't know about the Boarding schools, or the Sand Creek Massacre or the environment of the Pine Ridge Reservation. If we didn't learn this material in class, there's a good chance that most of us probably would never have learned about it. Plus I got to meet some very cool people that gave me great input on my goals, on how to deals with certain issues and what to watch out for in the future especially with college. Honestly it feels as if though the class ended to quickly but at least I can see everyone again on campus.
Bye for now.
Just like what you said, this English class turned out to be different than what I expected to be, however, I have to say that I like this way better. There are a lot of interesting aspects for this class and now I have learned a lot of new stuff. : ) and If we didn't learn this material in class, there's a good chance that most of us probably would never have learned about it!!
