Week One: The Back Story (Focus)

Focus: 
This week's focus was "questions." These are the questions I had while reading:

  • What is the significance of the first chapter, and what does it have to do with Michael Oher's story?
  • Why do colleges make their decisons based off of Lemmings book? What if he misjudged a player or was paid off to write good reviews?
  • Why did Michael Oher not speak to Lemming? Was he afraid or intimidated by him?
  • Why did Lemming say that he didn't consider Michael Oher as a real football player?
  • What did Big Tony see in Michael? why was he so passionate about enrolling Michael in Briarcrest?
  • How did Michael feel about going to an all white school? How would I feel if I was in Michael's position?
