Pre-Reading: What you need to know The novel, movie and article are all about a city in India called Mumbai (formerly known as Bombay). Important Facts about Mumbai: The most populous cities in India and the second most populous city in the world. It is the industrial and entertainment capital of India. It is the home of Bollywood (the Indian version of Hollywood) and lots of movie stars and major corporations. Some of the most wealthy, famous and powerful people in India live in Mumbai, but it also home to large slums and a large population of street children who live on the streets and support themselves and their families by begging. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQWpefYGIIs&feature=fvst http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIzbwV7on6Q Learning Goal: SWBAT Identify the location of Mumbai and summarize three key facts about Mumbai in order to build background knowledge for unit two.

A person should protect their friends at all costs– even if it means putting yourself in great danger. We are all shaped by the place we live in (our context determines who we are).
