WARM-Up Fold a piece of notebook paper into 4 sections. Label the 4 sections with the following words: 1) Identity 2) Culture 3) Stereotypes 4) Acceptance For each section, list everything about the topic that you learned in Unit 1, thinking about vocabulary, reading, the MOST IMPORTANT things you’re taking away, and how you can CONNECT this topic to YOUR LIFE.

UNIT 1 Reflection One component of your Unit 1 Project is to write a one-page reflection about your learning in this unit – what you’re taking away, what was most important or significant, and how you can connect your knowledge to your life. You just created a graphic organizer to make this assignment easy. You now have 15 minutes to write this reflection.

PRESENTATIONS You will present the words that correspond with the letters of your initials. For example, my initials are A-M-Y, so if I were presenting, I would show and tell you about my A word, my M word, and my Y word. This is a Speaking/Listening grade worth 20 points.
