3. Reading: Part I  On the reading, please do the following tasks individually :  Summarize the main points of the 2 readings.  Pick out 1 favorite passage (based on importance, interest, your connection—or lack of connection, confusion, etc.) from EACH reading.  Be ready to describe your passage and reason why you chose it.

4. Reading: Part II  In a small group (3-4 people), please follow the protocol on the next page.  We’ll start with the essay and leave the intro for when we have more time.  NOTE : The purpose is NOT to rush through and get to the end of the rounds. The point is to dig deeply into the text. When you finish, you should have a better understanding of the text than when you started.
