Thursday / Friday 29/30 September

There was a quiz.

We discussed the opening of Persepolis.

Students worked first individually, then in groups to fill in an "Open Mind" digram of what Marji, the protagonist spends time thinking about.

HOMEWORK:
Students are to write a short essay comparing themselves to Marji. Students should use a Venn Diagram as prewriting. We discussed ways to organize a compare and contrast essay. Most students will choose the version with a body paragraph devoted to similarities and one to differences.
Also due for Monday is reading Persepolis through page 39.
Students should be reading and filling out their SSR sheet.
