Here’s the sheet to sign up for conferences with me this week. I’m hoping that everyone can find a time that works for them from this list, but if I need to extend into the start of the next week then that’s what I’ll do. Just enter your name next to a date and time when you’re available — and then make certain to enter the time in your calendar so that you show up for the conference! Note the Zoom link for the conferences.

We’ll spend most of our time in class this week discussing the reading from Stitches, starting with the following questions:

  • Pick the single page that you find the most compelling or interesting or that you think is the most important in today’s reading. Describe the page in a few sentences. Why is it interesting or important?
  • How does Small establish character and setting in the introduction?
  • This chapter all takes place while David is 6 years old. What are the major subdivisions of the chapter though? You’ll probably decide that there are three (maybe four) major sections in these pages — what is the primary idea being conveyed by each section?
