"How do you want to incorperate Leaves of Grass into this? I'm confused."

Erin posted a discussionUsing "Paper Towns" in the classroom
I'm going college for secondary education, and right now I making a two week unit plan for a hypothetical unit class (scary! I've never done anything like this before!). Being a Nerdfighter, I obviously really really want to use Paper Towns as the text. - I would like to somehow talk about how we form our perceptions of other people and how those perceptions can be wrong.- I would like to compare Margo in PT to Esperanza in House on Mango Street and their different reactions to their flawed…See More

TAG! ... I'm it.
So, James tagged me, and I'm kind of excited to be included in the game.
Well ... maybe I should see if I can come up with 5 halfway interesting facts before I get too excited.

Francis (Nerdfighterlife) said… - I think it's awesome that you want to be fluent in French and Spanish!
I made a goal to be fluent in two foreign languages (at least) before the age of 30. I took two years of high school Latin and a year of high school Japanese-I'm hoping to take Spanish or Arabic at the community college next year (I'm a high school senior now)
