On the following slides you will see a statement, please stand if you can answer yes to the question….

If you are a girl, do you work outside of your house?

If you are a girl, do you ever purchase items from men at a store?

If you are a girl, do you have a male doctor?

If you are girl, do you allow people to see your face, hair, legs (ankles included)?

Do you wear makeup or nail polish?

If you are a girl, do you play sports or watch games?

Do you have pictures of women on the walls of your home? Be honest boys!

If you are a girl and do you ride on motorcycles or bikes?

Do you ride a bus with members of the opposite sex?

Do you listen to music?

Do you watch movies, television or videos?

Do you fly kites?

Look around. Is everyone standing?

These are just a few of the rules the Taliban brought to Afghanistan and to some areas of Pakistan.

Introduction to Three Cups of Tea

Start up: Please complete the Pre-Reading Guide. Check Agree or Disagree, and explain your choice (agree or disagree) in the response box. Place in binder- Openers section

Before the First Sip Examine the image on the cover: what can you infer about the culture/people photographed? Is there something in your background knowledge that informs the inferences you make? Note that one of the names cited on the cover is Tom Brokaw. What do you know about him that might be relevant to this book? Why do you think his opinion matters? Take a look at the Table of Contents and Index: are you surprised to find these in a book like this? What do you make of the chapter titles? Choose one chapter to look at more closely. Look at the opening quotation: what do you think it means? What might you infer about the chapter based on the title and the opening quotation? Read the first and last paragraphs of the chapter you selected. What, if anything, can you learn? Examine the maps inside the front of the book. What can you learn from them?

Before the First Sip Take a look at the photographs inside the book. How do you respond to them? What can you learn from the captions? Now, choose one photo to examine closely: what do you notice about the landscape? about the people? Choose a couple of photos that note a location and find the location on the map. Turn to the Acknowledgements section at the back of the book (p. 333). Read the first paragraph. What factors keep children from an education? What does the author want to achieve? The fourth paragraph on the first page of the Acknowledgements explains how the title of the book changed. Why do you think the debate over the title occurred? How do the various titles affect how you view the book? Why do you think the authors wanted the current version? Skim the Index. Note some entries that you do and do not recognize. Turn to one that is unfamiliar and see what you learn.
