Working with COMPLEX TEXT

 ~We have been working hard on  dissecting and interpreting complex and difficult text in class. We have been working with our discussion groups to figure out what the authors meant when they wrote this document (UHDR).  We have also been discussing some of the global tragedies that made the Universal Declaration of Human Rights necessary.  Did you know that in some countries and cultures you do not get to choose who you marry?  In some places girls as young as 10 and 11 are being married off by their families.  In some countries, the government can just come and take your property away.  In some countries you must practice a certain religion. Again, WE ARE GLAD WE LIVE IN THE USA!
