There was a pop quiz.
Students turned in their homework, and the class discussed the sacrifices that Marji's parent's made, and that Marji made at the end of Persepolis.
Students wrote a list of predictions for Marji's life in 1982 and beyond.
SSR sheets were collected, and new ones due on the 7th or 8th of November were handed out.
A brief description of the coming essay based on the Persepolis unit was made: E.g. the essay should not be a summary; it should address a "big issue" or "big question" in some way; the essay's will probably relate to one or more of the themes we have focused on: political revolution; teen rebellion; faith; male vs. female roles; society v. individual; family; heroes.
Students wrote a lengthy response to the following question:
What did I learn about the world (being a teen; being a parent; being political; being religious; etc.) by reading Persepolis and thinking about Marji and what she thought and did?
Students had SSR.
