  2. Group Discussions • You are not turning anything in for this assignment – Instead, you are simply discussing your assigned question to share an answer with the class. I would recommend taking discussion notes when the groups share. • Group 1 – Describe Franklin’s condition while he spends his first day in Philadelphia. • Group 2 – How would you describe the character of Franklin based on his actions in “Arrival in Philadelphia”? • Group 3 – What irony can you find in Franklin’s discussion and plan to arrive at moral perfection? • Group 4 – Compare and contrast Franklin’s thirteen virtues to Puritanism.
