Weekend+Journal--September+19th

Remember to do the journal post before you read the story. If you've already read the story, that's okay. You can still do the post. I look forward to reading your insights....In other news, I'm grading your tests....they look very good. Let's keep up the great work. (Remember to click the "Discussion" tab, in order to respond to the question).

Consider what it would be like to come to America as a foreign person. You do not speak the language. You do not know anyone. What challenges would you face? What would be your first steps in addressing these issues? What sacrifices might you have to make in order to more quickly adjust to life in this country?

PS. Those of you who really want to impress us could consider talking to someone who has a life story that aligns with this topic. There are plenty of first or second generation Americans living in Middletown. Be brave; go talk to someone, and see what you learn.
