I’m trying to study for my Writing course and I need some help to understand this question.
- For each reading provide the name of the reading (for example: Unequal Cities Chapter 1; Unequal Cities Chapter 5; Another Brooklyn) and then a paragraph of the following.
- Write 1-2 sentences summarizing the main argument in your own words.
- Write 2-4 sentences describing what is at stake for children regarding the reading.
- Write 2-4 sentences describing what is at stake for society regarding the reading
- Write 1-2 sentences about how it relates to what you know about 2100 so far and our focus on justice.
- Example: Hostile Hallways The main arguments of this reading are that Chinese children suffer a lot of peer discrimination at school, compared to other ethnicities. They might be celebrated by the teachers, who see them as academically gifted. This hurts them if they are not academically gifted and with the peers who pick on them because they are thought to be weak.
- What is at stake for children? Chinese American children suffer in schools with their peers and are not able to create friendships across ethnicities. They then might stereotype others for the way they are treated. The children could suffer esteem issues and feel ostracized.
- What is at stake for society? We see how stereotypes and 2 discrimination happens early with our children and then we see how it continues into adulthood. We need to intervene earlier so that we as professionals can break the cycle of stereotypes, so that our society is more inclusive and kinder.
- This relates to 2100 as we are looking at the challenges for all children in various contexts in the United States and beyond. This is an example of how all kinds of stereotypes hurt children. We need to be less stereotypical so that we arrive at justice and not just assume that some children are innocent. That hurts all children.
It is truly and fairly simple ! please follow the rubric and instructions. The readings are attached and i have an example of how it should be done for both readings !
