Do Now (Friday) | Think Pair Share Juxtaposition of Day and Night: In chapter one, we only learn about the characters Valentin and Molina at night—specifically as Molina recalls the story of the Panther Woman. Maybe not so coincidentally, much is revealed about the Cat Woman's true nature only at night.

The Argentina ProjectThe Argentina Project is an advanced Humanities course in which students study Kiss of the Spider Woman by Manuel Puig, a 1976 novel about two prisoners who share a cell just prior to the start of Argentina's military dictatorship and Dirty War. In this time of censorship and loss of individual rights, a dogmatic revolutionary and a gay window dresser bond over memories of loved ones and the movies. Students study the history, government, politics, and lasting effects of Argentina's military dictatorship and Dirty War. Students also consider cultural and artistic repercussions through the lens of human rights. Categories
