book talk response

LOVED YOUR PRESENTATION!!!!, I did not get to take notes and I am a visual learner, I found however that though there was not a lot of visual stimulation over the materials I remember most of the presentation. To me that says a lot. I liked the section on dress codes, I feel like that class engaged in a healthy honest discussion on the pros and cons of the subject. I really liked Sarah’s honesty in encouraging us to read the “essentials” before reading other parts of the book. I feel like the presentation you all gave made me want to (and will) read this book at some point in my career. I also liked the fact that you mentioned that there is a crossing over of the ways boys and girls learn I feel like this helps to make us aware that we sometimes expect boys and girls to behave and learn a certain way and this may not always be the case. The team building activities (human knot) I have done before, I had never considered why and how differently girls and boys approached the situations before them until you asked us to examine what happened in our groups in that regard.
