**Course Goal:** Reading-prereading activity **Date of Assignment :** November 2011 **Describe the Assignment-** Before we read //Of Mice and Men, each student was assigned to a group to research a topic associated with the book such as The Great Depression, Migrant Workers, The Salinas Valley and other topics relevant to the book. By researching my topic, The Great Depression, I learned about the hardships during the 1930s. I learned from the other research groups about the discrimination of African Americans in the 1930s, the Salinas Valley, and Migrant Workers. This information helped me to understand the lifestyle of the characters, George and Lennie, and the hardships they faced.//
