In class we reviewed the most significant events in the chapter "The Sheep" of Persepolis.
We examined the two panels on page 66 in particular. In the second panel on the page we contrasted what the Islamic Secret Police / terrorists said their mission was with what Marji mother taught Margi on page 53. We also noted that the three secret policemen look identical except that one has his head on backward. After deciding that this might be symbolic the class brainstormed what the person made them think of. We brainstormed the associations students had with an owl.
Students then made a list of the 10 most important events though page 71 of the book. Next they watched a video version of Persepolis and filled out a list of the 10 most significant events that occur in the film version. We noted that music the music is somewhat sad but has some happy elements to it as well.
We paid attention to several different images in the film. For instance Reza Shah (6:00) is portrayed like a puppet. Protesters (8:30) are portrayed as silhoutes in order to show their universal nature. We watched through about minute twenty of the film.
Then students had SSR time.
For next class all students should have read Persepolis through page 79.
