This unit is specifically geared toward students who are reaching their adolescence. Adolescents, as well as adults, reflect and rely on past experiences to make appropriate choices.
Adults have the benefit of much more experience and hopefully a certain maturity.
Adolescents do not. These would include cultural, and more specifically, family values. These factors influence who we are and how we relate to other people. I have chosen three plays that I feel are enjoyable to read, and relevant in dealing with these complex themes. The plays are The Oxcart by Rene Marques, And the Soul Shall Dance by Wakako Yamauchi, and A Raisin in the Sun by Lorraine Hansberry.
