Since there are so many readings, let's pair them so that groups talk about relationships between articles. I'll give you some time in class to chat as a larger group, but here are the pairs:

Anzaldua and Rodriguez

Pratt and Lam

Tan and Rose (think about relationships between children, parents, schooling, and power...)

Literacy autobiographies

I just created spaces under "BSpace/Forum" for each group pairing. I think you can post threads and chat with each other here before presenting to the class on Thursday...maybe you can come up with one core question to present to the class, which worked great last week.

Enjoy!
