July 1 Notes

Order the recommended basil-walnut pesto sandwich rather than the rabbit food house salad and order the Strawberry Napoleon rather than the carob covered coconut cheesecake.

Much was said.

There will be (probably) 4 parts of the summer project -
1. Blogs - For which there are some guidelines for the first posted below. Of course people should add other thoughts, questions for each other, not just write about what I ask you to write, unless you want to.

2. Books - We've agreed to start reading Never Let Me Go by English author Kazuo Ishiguro. Thereafter we will read a student selection - either Runaway Jury by Grisham or Transforming a Rape Culture edited by Buchwald et al or Intercourse by Dworkin or something else.

3. Adventures - We discussed a bike/scooter trip and we also discussed some other locations. I'll do some research and present options at the next meeting.

4. Curriculum - We've agreed that each of us will post about one curriculum unit/topic and include ideas, activities, provocative questions, etc around that topic. Then when we get back together we will see if we can connect them.

Our next meeting will be at the Cube at Astor Place, a notorious meeting spot, at 7pm Tuesday 7/7.
