A note from Mrs. Burke:
This week on our classroom blog, students reflected about science, language arts, and Science. They have enjoyed learning more about states of matter in science, anticipating the end of the book we have been reading in language arts, and expanding their Spanish vocabulary through song and dance.

Language Arts: Esperanza Rising
Which human rights have been threatened the “Los Duraznos” chapter of Esperanza Rising?
How does it make you feel when these human rights have been threatened? Why?
How does it make you feel when these human rights have been threatened? Why?
One human right that was threatened was on page 233 because Esperanza works super hard to get all the money and someone stole it all. That is human right number 2 because number 2 is workers right and someone just took all her hard work. It makes me feel sad because she works hard to work for it.
-Peyton
One of the human rights that has been threatened in “Los Duraznos” is #2 (no
discrimination) because the Oklahoma people get new cabins and new toilets inside with hot water and swimming pool they can use all week but the Mexicans swim on Fridays before they clean it on Saturdays.
