Hey everyone– great work on your presentations! These things are due for Thursday:
- First of all, fill out “collaborative evaluation form” for your groups
- Read and annotate “A Talk to Teachers” by James Baldwin HERE and then write a “difficulty paper” of about 300 words. In a difficulty paper, you focus in one one or two passages that you find difficult or confusing (quote them!) and EXPLAIN in detail why you found them difficult or confusing (or upsetting or boring.) Try to get to the heart of where you found it difficult. Dig deeply! Be as specific as you can about what your mind was doing as you read those sections.
This is a low-stakes assignment, meaning I’m not grading you on your grammar, just on you getting it done and you putting thought into it!
