"The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character--that is the goal of a true education."-- Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Reflect on the quote above from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Then, discuss an assignment or reading given you in your English class, preferably, AP English Lit that caused you to think intensively and/or critically. Or think of an assignment or project from another class that developed your character. Discuss the assignment or project; how it challenged you; and what you discovered about the subject matter or yourself while undertaking it. Required length: one full page.
2. Finish reading, or re-reading "Living in Sin" from your Perrine Literature Text. Complete a total of 15 of the questions on page 655 using "Living in Sin". Be ready to discuss your interpretation in class on Wednesday, and be ready for a reading quiz on the poem (a short one).
3. To continue reading and journaling for your Literature Circle Novel (read another chuck). You will really have your first official meeting this Thursday. You should have three more complete DJ's done by Thursday as well as your literature circle role sheet completed.
