Discussion Leader: Cultural Aspects Different From Your Own Culture

Name:
Reading Circle #:
Connector
Role: The Connector’s job is to help group members make connections between the reading and the world outside. The Connector should think about how the story relates to his/her own experiences or to the experiences of friends or family members. Also, the Connector can talk about how this story is connected to other readings, current events, or things that they have heard about. Here are some questions to begin discussing connections between the reading and the world outside. Try to be as specific as possible:
How is this reading related to other class readings?
Are there any cultural aspects of the reading that are similar to or different from your own culture?
Does anything in the reading remind you of something in the news or something else that you have read?
What has happened in your life that is similar to some of the things that are explained in the reading?
