Guiding Questions (You do not have to do all):

  • Does something confuse you or lead to further questions?
  • How do you feel about this?

Using the template below, type out your responses (or print and hand write).  This assignment is meant to help you analyze the text and prepare you so that you are able to talk about your selected passages in class; keep track of which passages you wrote about.
