HW for WEDNESDAY class (due on 1/31)

Hey there, you have things you are doing to get ready for next week  (when the first paper will be assigned)

1. this is the link to CNN video about the guy from India working with the homeless in his community.

Pls watch the video, then answer this question:

What are 3 quotes that stand out to you?
Why did you pick them? (discuss what the quote means to you, or what you think it means, or why it is important idea)

2. You are asked to meet up with 4 to 5 people who know you. (You don't need to meet them all at once, lol, but pairs might work...)
You will be asking these people to talk about YOU. (yes, it might feel weird at first!)
See if you can create a discussion that explores
what strengths they see in you...
what passions they see you having...
what future they envision for you...
what role they can imagine you playing in groups or in doing projects....

(these can be turned into questions that you ask...)

TAKE NOTES about what they say, maybe even record them... their words will end up being QUOTES that you use in paper #1..
After you do the interviews... write up 3-4 paragraphs that pull together the ideas and especially the trends that you notice...(it probably means something if every person you interview thinks you shoud be an astronaut...lol)


3. Pls go to this link and watch this movie The Passion Project.

bring all this to class on Wednesday, with hard copies... we will be sharing this....
