Description
Students examine Silko’s personal narrative essay, “Yellow Woman and a Beauty of the Spirit,” and focus on how the author uses structure and language to build and refine complex ideas. As in the first unit, students continue to analyze how the author uses elements of narrative writing to effectively structure her personal exploration of the way meaningful experiences and cultural history have influenced her identity formation.
