Today we started with a discussion on The Tipping Point, chapter 1. After that we working on Keaton's 'Music through the Decades' project, focusing on the 1950s and 1960s. We discussed cultural implications of both decades, and the different ways music reflected those cultural elements. We discussed Current Events, and had lunch, then got back to work. We investigated Nathaniel Hawthorne, and his history. We then began reading his short story, "The Birthmark."
