Today in class we divided the class into Literature Circle Discussion Groups. If a student was absent then he or she can join a group on Monday, prepare the reading in advance.

For each chapter students are to develop a reading log. The log can include vocabulary students had to look up in the dictionary, questions about references, key ideas from the text like arguments. As students read the book, jot down references to the three strategies the authors mention which are ways to assist the women profiled escape the horrors associated with being a woman or a girl in the societies referenced, like education, economic opportunities and better health care.

Students swapped contact information as well.

Besides the reading, homework is also to continue in the STPH workbook. We will review the answers to exercises in groups next week and write Essay 1: Sentence Punctuation for Thursday in the lab. You will email me the essays after peer reviews.
