1. Read and annotate “Stereotyping” article from Facing History and Ourselves. Answer five questions at the end thoroughly and carefully–typed or handwritten legibly–on a separate sheet of paper.

Two of the questions should address growing up in South Carolina, “the deep South.” Two of the questions should address living in Montana.

I will check them in morning homeroom!
