JOURNAL TOPIC:
Reading about the character of Jean Valjean reminded me of the last words in Victor Hugo's introduction: "So long as ignorance and misery remain on earth, there should be a need for books such as this." Do you agree that it is important to remind each other that every human has needs, including a need for dignity? Why or why not? Please explain your answer. Feel free to use a contemporary example to support your main point.
AGENDA:
1. Journal
2. Read together to p.106
3. Lit circles/continue to p.120
4. Individual conferences
POST:
Describe the interaction between Jean Valjean and the Bishop. Did the bishop's reaction surprise you? Why/why not? Do you think the bishop serves as a meaningful example/role model? Why/why not? (title: HERE'S YOUR SILVER)
