Starter 4 (Grayson)
Framing: The chapter makes three main arguments about why poverty hasn’t changed in decades. This quote comes from one of those arguments but applies to all and to all other readings. By making students take a side and argue this point will require them to critically analyze the meaning behind the metaphor. Small Group Discussion Questions: (Grayson) You get to choose your groups for now. If this discussion goes well, that will be the norm. If this goes poorly we will choose your discussion groups. In your table groups, we need one person dedicated to being a notetaker, timekeeper, and a sharer. If there’s an extra they get to be a notetaker too. Spend 3 minutes on each question in discussion (keep this in check timekeeper). The sharer will be prepared to share your group’s consensus for two questions (including the a’s and b’s). Question 7 will be for the whole class.
