The author of Monique and the Mango Rains is Kris Holloway; she studied people who lived in a Malian village. In this village the custom of joking was common among what Holloway referred to as “joking cousins.” This term was used with people who have the same last name in the village and they would make jokes toward one another such as, how is your dog? Have you eaten him already? Here in America we would find this phrase to be weird, but in the United States we sometimes show our affection through making jokes about one another. Farther down page 40 Dettwyler wrote about the lepers that she experienced in the streets while walking around Mali, and gave advice to her assistant about how to avoid giving every leper money.

I have spent my past four years attending Cicely Tyson honoring my visual arts skills, which has provided me with numerous opportunities to work with students of various cultural backgrounds. My participation in group projects with fellow artists has exposed me to a wide variety of cultural values, beliefs and traditions. Furthermore, I volunteer regularly at my mosque and have encountered and welcomed many people of different cultural backgrounds while working at food pantries, soup kitchens, and clothing drives.

I wanted my learners to not only learn something new but feel that they had achieved something new. I chose a variety of teaching methods which was a mix of visual, audio and kinaesthetic learning approaches. Learners were given hand-outs of the recipe and were able to give feedback of ways the recipe could be changed; a flipchart was also used to take down any points given. An example of the cake was shown and students were able to taste the cake, and were then able to identify the ingredients they can taste and see. Learners were able to reflect as a group on how the cake looked and tasted and how they would do things differently next time.

The Effectiveness of Rhetorical Situations Rhetorical situations occur everywhere around us; in a school classroom, on a playing field, and while ordering a gourmet dinner at your favorite restaurant. A rhetorical situation is an activity or event that uses communication or, discourse, to attempt to get people do to something in response to a situation (Grant-Davie 7). By using these situations the author can persuade other people to respond a certain way and explain what it is they want their audience to know about a particular subject. Alessandra Stanley uses several of the key components of rhetorical situations in her piece “Who Says Women Aren’t Funny?” to try to persuade her audience that women are in fact funny, solidify the views of those who already view women as being comedic, and to show that people are set in their old ways of thinking that women are only housewives. However, she does not achieve her goal of persuading those who originally agreed with Hitchens.
