How does religion and culture affect ones interpretation of reality? 2. How do we determine the religious and/or political views of an author? 3. How do the authors religious and/or political views affect the way we interpret a text? Enduring Understandings: (Big ideas/core understanding will the students remember ten years from now) 1. We interpret our world through the lens of our culture, our religion and our political views. 2. Authors often present a biased perspective, and it is our job as readers to identify the bias and infer meaning from the text, always remaining cognizant of the bias. 3. We determine bias in a text by reading with a critical lens and then comparing our analysis to texts with different viewpoints on the same subject. Structures: (Try a variety of structures that will match well with the content and you will reuse and build on throughout the unit) Differentiated literature circles (mini-lessons on lit circle protocols) Using film and current events articles to define and identify bias Skills: (Reading, writing, verbal, critical thinking, etc.) Using religion, culture and politics as a critical lens Recognizing religious, cultural or political bias in a text Analyzing the effects of religion and culture in ones life by examining characters in fiction and non-fiction texts and film Discussing fiction and non-fiction texts in small, differentiated literature circles Comparing and contrasting historical conflicts Recognizing patterns in various historical conflicts Assessments: (Can be of the structure, the skill, the content or a combination) Discussion Circle Reflections Analysis using culture, religion, politics as critical lens Observations of discussions Culminating project: Students will form teams of free-lance journalists and photographers to pitch their feature story to a panel of editors from TIME magazine. The feature story is a piece comparing/contrasting the cultural, religious or political conflict of the place and the people in the lit. circle book to a cultural, religious or political conflict somewhere else in the world. Students must use PowerPoint to pitch their ideas and address authors bias as well as their own bias. Possible Lesson Sequence: (What do I need to teach to achieve the above objectives/goals? Includes setting up the structures, practicing them if necessary, the content, the skills and preparing for the assessments) Introduce EQs. Define critical lens, religion, culture, politics. Students watch Osama noting religious and cultural aspects, effects on the characters. Discuss the religious and political message of the filmmaker what difference that makes in how we interpret the film for ourselves. Hand out lit circle novels and brief summary/background info on each. Discuss protocols, roles, and assignments. Set ground rules and create a reading calendar. Distinguishing between the religious content of the text and the political content. Distinguishing between the religious content of the text and political content in a current events article about the war in Iraq. Explain background of the war. Defining bias. Show Outfoxed. How is this movie an extreme case of bias? Determining authors point of view about religion and politics in your novel. What do you think their bias is? Asking good questions and asking good follow up questions in your discussion circles. Taking it back to the book using textual evidence to support claims about your book. AND/OR Extending lit circle discussion when youve run out of things to talk about. Determining the authors point of view about religion or politics in a current events news article about war in Iraq. What do you think the authors bias is? Revisit notes on religious and political content and authors possible bias: How does this information affect our interpretation of the text (the meanings and messages in the text and our opinions about them)? First on the novel, then on the news article. Putting together the final project.
