  2. “Hairs” (6) • Think about the people in your own family, the characteristics you share with them and those which make them (and you) distinctive. Identify a physical trait that you think represents you and possibly your family. Is the trait one you share with your family or yours alone? Why is it significant? Would you change it if you could or not? Why?

  3. “My Name” (10) • What is the personal significance of your given name (first, middle and last)? Does your name mean different things to you, your family, and your friends? What are your nicknames? What do your nicknames mean to you and those who call you those names?

  4. “Cathy Queen of Cats” • Has someone ever shown prejudice toward you because of your age, race, ethnic background, religion, or something else? What did the person do or say? How did you react?

  5. “And Some More” (35) • In what areas of your life are you most free to do what you like? In what areas of your life do you have the least freedom? Consider the roles gender, race, religion, education, class, age, and upbringing play in limiting an individual’s personal freedom.

  6. “Hips” (49) • How is growing into a teenage body (physically, mentally and emotionally) like moving into a new house/apartment? Compare the experiences of moving into a new house/apartment to the experiences of being a teenager.
