Please choose one single page from the reading and annotate this page. You can ask questions, pull out words or phrases you are intrigued by, make connections to other materials. We will be looking at one another’s annotations together in seminar. Please take a photo and send these to me by Tuesday at 10am.


I will hold one-on-one JP conferences this week and next. Please make an appointment to meet with me.
