Wednesday, December 1

Due on Thursday:

1) Read pages 15-31 in Alexie.  (IF you happen to get immersed in the story and read more, you MAY NOT share what happens with others!)  Answer the following questions THOUGHTFULLY:

  • What is a stereotype?
  • Are stereotypes harmless or harmful? (ADDED QUESTIONS!)
  • Are stereotypes self-fulfilling?

I expect 1/3 to 1 page of thoughtful writing.  This will be graded.

2) Continue studying for the Lincoln Round Up – Exam.  Use the study guide to review for this.  I will NOT collect this piece of work.  You will do it on your own and for your own preparation.

Due Monday:

1) Be prepared and ready to take the Lincoln Round Up: Exam on Lincoln and the Civil War
