Class Work
1. Class Discussion: To what extent does what we wear create who we are?
2. Sharing of narratives: Groups of five
Remember a time when a clothing code was imposed on you- for school, work, or for a social event withing your peer group or family. Describe how you felt about the requirement and whether you rebelled or conformed. Write about this in a brief narrative - one page - tell the story.
OR
Write a descriptive account of a time when your choice of clothing created attention that you did not intend to draw. (One page - tell the story.)
Groups members - listen to the story being shared. Do you have questions? Is there any information that you did not understand? What else would you like to know? Share your comments with the reader. In addition, tell the reader what you liked. What was good. What parts were strong?
Each group will nominate one reader to share with the class.
3. Class reading of Los Vendidos - p. 144 -.
