1. First, participate in a peer editing activity. Remember, the writer must take a stand. You topic relates to some aspect of Body Art. The paper should be 3-5 pages long.
- Have the paper showing on the screen in a Word document. You can copy/past it from MyCompLab into Word.
- Sit in groups of four - no exceptions!
- Listen carefully to the directions.

Bring in the lyrics to a popular love song. You may also include a YouTube link if one is available and is appropriate for a PG13 audience.
Tina Turner once sang, "What's love got to do with it?"

In class on Tuesday, we briefly talked about the advantages and disadvantages of on-line dating.
For homework, you will need to read an additional article.
Handout only: "Virtual Love" by Meghan Daum
As you read the article, look for what Daum says are the advantages and disadvantages of on-line dating. In addition, answer questions 1-8 under Thinking About the Text. Post your answers in MyCompLab. You do not need to type the questions. Be sure to number your answers. Answers need to be written in complete sentences. (40 pts.)
What is the answer to Tina Turner's question? What is love? How does it impact relationships?
Discussion: What is the best relationship you know of? Perhaps it is the love a mother has for her child. Maybe it is the affection one has toward a partner. It could be the excitement of a new relationship. It might be the love a husband has for a wife and a wife has for her husband after many years of marriage.
Handout: "Private Lives" Read the article. Underline at least three powerful words, lines, or phrases. Post them on sticky-notes. Place on the board. Be sure to read what has already been posted before posting yours. If the same lines have been selected, place your note by the one already there. A discussion will follow.
We are moving toward the next writing piece which will focus on a definition of a term related to relationships. Think broadly. You will not be limited to "love stories." We will study more possibilities next week.
