“Self Reliance”

Do Now: Reread “Self-Reliance” using one of the strategies we discussed yesterday, write a brief note at the end of your reading—did this strategy improve your comprehension and understanding? Why or why not?

Turn and talk to a partner: what main messages does Emerson share through “Self-Reliance”? Consider: – Whose opinion you should trust on what is “good” or “bad” – What do “great men” do? – Why isn’t it a big deal if people don’t agree with your nonconformity? – What does he say about consistency?

Whose opinion you should trust on what is “good” or “bad”?

What do “great men” do?

Why does Emerson claim you shouldn’t worry about others’ disapproval?

What does Emerson say about consistency?

What do you think Emerson would have to say about our society?

Recognizing Relevancy In order to show how this text is relevant outside of transcendentalism, choose one of these three options: – Write a page about how this text relates to another text you’ve read – Create a buzzfeed article about this text – Write a page on how this text relates to a situation in your own life, or something going on in the larger American culture

Homework Finish one-page response to Emerson Read pages and answer the following questions – What does George and Slim’s conversation tell you about what ranch workers are typically like? – What does George reveal about his relationship with Lennie? – What do you think it is about Slim that made George so quick to confide in him? – What is Carlson’s plan for Candy’s dog?
