Looking ahead to Thanksgiving:

Check for understanding

Student-led discussion

• Today and tomorrow we’ll be hearing from two critics of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
• Cranston’s argument is clear and well-structured. I suggest using a with-the-grain/against-the-grain strategy in analyzing and responding to his piece. Leadership for today’s discussion will rest with all of you. 

Homework: Assignment #214.

• Please take paper handout.
  
• Note I have added “consider” questions to the assignment that might help guide your reading. Based on feedback I’ve received, I’ll start doing this more regularly.
