Students -- move to the corner with the sign that most closely matches and reflects your opinions, without any discussion or verbal response. 2. After you have arrived at your corner, you have 3-5 minutes to discuss your reactions and opinions. 3. A spokesperson from each group will report your groups opinions. 4. Debate/discussion. 5. You may change your opinion now. 6. You may explain why you changed your opinion as a result of the debate.

STATEMENTS  My family’s ethnic heritage is ethnic hash  My parents actively help me appreciate my cultural heritage  I sometimes feel in conflict with my parents because we define our culture differently  I’ve been in a sport or tried a hobby because my parents pressured me to  I have quit something and my parents were disappointed  My parents have dreams for me that I do not wish for  I have failed at something because I really did not care about it  People in my life want me to be/do something that really is not me
