    THEORIZING AMERICAN GIRL ________________________________________________________________ A Thesis presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School University of Missouri-Columbia ________________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts ________________________________________________________________ by VERONICA E. MEDINA Dr. David L. Brunsma, Thesis Advisor MAY 2007 The undersigned, appointed by the dean of the Graduate School, have examined the thesis entitled THEORIZING AMERICAN GIRL Presented by Veronica E. Medina A candidate for the degree of Master of Arts, And hereby certify that, in their opinion, it is worthy of acceptance. Professor David L. Brunsma Professor Mary Jo Neitz Professor Lisa Y. Flores DEDICATION My journey to and through the master’s program has never been a solitary one. My family has accompanied me every step of the way, encouraging and supporting me: materially and financially, emotionally and spiritually, and academically. From KU to MU, you all loved me and believed in me throughout every endeavor. This thesis is dedicated to my family, and most especially, to my parents Alicia and Francisco Medina. Mom and Dad: As a child, I often did not recognize and, far too often, took for granted the sacrifices that you made for me. Sitting and writing a thesis is a difficult task, but it is not as difficult as any of the tasks you two undertook to ensure my well-being, security, and happiness and to see me through to this goal. For all of the times you went without (and now, as an adult, I know that there were many) so that we would not, thank you.

  • Preview of Midnight in Lonesome Hollow a Kit Kittredge American Girl Mystery
    Preview of Midnight In Lonesome Hollow A Kit Kittredge American Girl Mystery Written by Kathleen Ernst Published by American Girl Books 2007 Kit is visiting Aunt Millie in 1934. When a professor arrives to study Kentucky mountain traditions, Kit is thrilled to help her with her research—until it becomes clear that somebody doesn’t want “outsiders” nosing around. Kit decides to find out who’s making trouble…even if it means venturing into Lonesome Hollow in the dark of night. Girls will enjoy solving the mystery right along with Kit. This book includes an illustrated “Looking Back” section to provide historical context. Kit heard the stream’s swishy-whish, swishy-whish song before she glimpsed it through the trees. “Isn’t this Lonesome Branch, that leads to the Craig place?” she asked. “I’ve been looking forward to seeing Fern and Johnny all day.” “It sure is,” Aunt Millie said. “Whoa, Serena!” The mule ambled to a halt on the steep trail. Aunt Millie looked down at Kit, who’d been walking beside the mule. “You’ve learned your way around these parts pretty well.” Kit grinned. “It’s been fun visiting people with our traveling library!” “This will be our last stop today,” Aunt Millie said. “Climb up and hold on!” Kit swung into place on the mule and wrapped her arms around Aunt Millie’s waist. Serena trotted down the bank, splashed into the shallow water, and began picking her way upstream. Kit sucked in a deep breath of mountain air, happy to be exactly where she was.

    E-SOURCES ON WOMEN & GENDER Look what the National Women’s Studies Association (NWSA) and MS. Magazine have put together: a 2009 GUIDE TO WOMEN’S AND GENDER STUDIES programs. Starting from the website of either NWSA (www.nwsa.org/msmag) or MS. (www.msmagazine.com/womensstudies), you can search by state, type of degree offered, or name of institution. Did you know that there are twenty-three colleges and universities in Wisconsin listed as offering women’s/gender studies? They range from the likes of Carthage College, which has a sprinkling of undergraduate courses but no minor or major, to the UW–Madison with its free-standing undergraduate major and master’s degree (as well as an undergrad minor and a graduate certificate). If your institution is not listed, contact NWSA to be added to the database. ALICE WALKER’S GARDEN at www.alicewalkersgarden.com is the official website for the well-known writer. It includes an official biography by the officers of the Alice Walker Literary Society, photos, information about the books, a selection of previously unpublished poems, links to the author’s blog, and a reflection about how she learned on a visit to South Korea to approach being in her sixties.

  • Read All About It! a Story About the Great Depression in America
    ® A Teacher’s Guide to Read All About It! A story about the Great Depression in America Lexile measure: 670L About the Book Kit Kittredge is nine years old when her dad loses his car dealership because of the Great Depression. It’s 1932, and many people are out of work and even being evicted from their homes. As Kit’s own family struggles to pay the mort- gage, Mrs. Kittredge decides to take in boarders. This means big changes for the entire family, especially for Kit and her 16-year-old brother, Charlie. Kit moves into the attic and gives her room to Stirling Howard, a quiet and sickly boy, and his mother. Just when Kit thinks that things can’t get any worse, she is shocked to see her father standing in line at the soup kitchen. There are friendships gained, lost, and reclaimed, along with sacrifices and hard work on everyone’s part, and Kit is right there doing her share. The future is uncertain for the Kittredge family, but like many people affected by the Great Depression, they pull together and find happiness despite the economic difficulties. (Lexile measure: 670L) About This Guide and the Common Core Standards Elementary students may know very little about the Great Depression. The essay at the back of the book, “Inside Kit’s World,” sets the stage for this distressing period in American history. This guide encourages students to be careful readers without diminishing the pleasure they gain from reading. It is recommended that students read the entire book before engaging in the discussions and activi- ties presented in this guide.
