With only three weeks left in the semester, we need to get finished with Persepolis. Students read “The Trip” p. 72, “The F-14s” p. 80, “The Jewels” p. 87, and “The Key” p. 94, wrote small and medium questions, and then answered a journal prompt (How have things changed for Marji since her uncle died? What’s different in her life? What’s different for the people of Iran?). This took most of class. We did briefly discuss the project for the second independent novel as well as a few of the questions students wrote. Homework: keep reading your independent novel; you need to finish it by the beginning of next week.
