Lacey/Geuliette Groups
Students start each class with a short writing assignment. Today’s prompt:
What is one lesson you learned so far from the book and how can you apply it to your life?
After the students completed the assignment, finished watching the movie. We also read several chapters of the book.

We had a class discussion about the negative effects of technology on socializing. Students are to “people watch” over the weekend and report back with five ways that technology has interrupted or gotten in the way of face-to-face interaction.
