Take notes based on these pages p.51-53

Today you were assigned:

• Check your Learning on p.45
• The wording may be tricky.
  • For number 1, explain why it’s important to be able to analyze texts.
  • For number 2, explain how media can influence our perspectives on gender roles talked about in class last week. Remember when we talked about how many kitchen and cleaning products often feature women and how automotive products feature men. How does constant exposure to these messages affect our thinking?
  • For number 3, make some connections of how you think your views have been influenced by media.

Upon completion, please take notes, following the format on the note taking sheet that I provided last week on pages 47 and 48. Be ready to share your notes with the class on Wednesday when this is due.
