Read Amy Tan’s essay “Mother Tongue”. You can find the essay in Join the Conversation, our electronic textbook.

As you read “Mother Tongue”, use the commenting tool on Perusall to annotate the reading. Please add four annotations to the text. These annotations are an opportunity to rephrase an idea in your own words, ask a question about the text, draw a connection between this reading and something else you have experienced or read, or to add your own reaction or response to the text. You are also free to offer an annotation that responds to one that has already been shared by one of your classmates.

I have provided some general guidance above under the heading “Annotation”. This should give you a clearer sense of what annotation is and more specific instructions about how to annotate using Perusall

These annotations must be completed before class on Monday, September 12th.
