Bless Me Ultima

We will begin our year with reading and discussion of Bless Me Ultima by Rudolfo Anaya.

In this unit we begin study to foster global competence.

Global Competence is the capacity and disposition to understand and act on issues of global significance.

We will become mindful to develop thinking dispositions to foster global competence by developing:

• A disposition to inquire about the world.
• A disposition to understand multiple perspectives
• A disposition toward respectful dialog
• A disposition toward taking responsible action.
