TODAY’S OBJECTIVES:
Students will learn how cultural background, gender, and personal
experience influence learning and point of view
AGENDA:
1) Complete warmup #27: How would you define the
word “real?” What does “real” mean to you? Give me
an example.
2) In your reading groups, please answer the following questions:
 What constitutes mental illness? For what types of
behaviors, if any, should people be institutionalized?
 What basic rights, if any, should be denied someone
exhibiting mental illness?
 To what extent is conformity necessary to a society?
Is there a point where conformity should become
more important than human rights?
