02.06 - Big Rooty & Barber Reading

At the beginning of class today, we reviewed the set 10 roots and prefixes with a new language game called "Big Rooty". I taught everyone the game and then we brought in the roots and prefix element as a way of reviewing for the quiz (rules and notes from class below). We then had the set 10 quiz which we corrected together in class.

Next, we returned to our work with looking at the history and beginnings of barber shops in the United States. Last class, we responded to and discussed the pre-reading questions for this article. Today, everyone received the article and had time to begin reading it and responding to the reading questions (see the slide below).

We did not have time to finish the article and reading questions in class so this should be done for homework over the weekend. We will respond to the post-reading question that goes with the article on Monday.

Homework:

Finish reading The Racially Fraught History of the American Beard and responding to the

reading questions that go with the article.

Complete missing work and revise any assignment that scored below a 92.
