week 3 BreAnna

#1: Click on the following link and read the article "The Courage to Go to School." http://teacher.scholastic.com/scholasticnews/magazines/scope/pdfs/SCOPE-013111-ThenNow.pdf
A) Both girls showed incredible bravery in the face of their abuse. Explain/Compare/Contrast how both girls reacted to their ordeals.

• The girls were alike in their ordeals because they both showed that they were not going to give up on what the believed in. They believed it was their equal right to receive their education, just like rest of society. These girls reached their goals by sticking through the pain and torment.

How would you have handled the situation? Describe a situation in which you displayed courage.

• If i was in this situation i would stick it out just like the these girls did. I am definitely saucy, i would work hard and do anything i could to improve my life status.

#2: Persuade your classmates to read (or not read) the book you are reading for recreation. Give specific examples of what makes it a good read (or not).

• I would recommend you to read this novel because it gives you many different opinions on how people view rape,and even what people's definition of rape is and is not. Its a really good book if you like to hear about other peoples life stories and maybe you might relate to what they have to say.
  

#3: Identify 2 or 3 possible topics for class discussion using this blog.

• Possible topic i think our class should discuss is just like in my book what they believe rape is?? Such as if the girl Say's its okay to touch is it okay to go ''all the way'', I don't know if this is suitable for class but as we are adults i believe it is a possible topic.
• 
  
• Another topic we should talk about it stereotypes, such as if the saying that Chinese are bad driver's. That blacks like kool-aid and watermelon, Or that every white person lives in a trailer park or is rich. There's two side to each race, they say that blacks are mainly poor but look at the majority of football,&Basketball players and rappers.
• 
  
• The third topic we should discuss is teenagers in abusive home's and relationships, causes they to be aggressive and form difficulties for them to cope with every day life.
