1. KNOWLEDGE - How do you know that becoming American citizens means a lot to these families?
2. ANALYZING - Why do you think the people in the story react differently to snow? Use details from the story.
3. GENERATING - Why do you think the author waits until the end of the story to show the importance of this day?
4. INTEGRATING - Why does the author write about so many different families, instead of focusing on just one?
5. EVALUATING - Why was Bailong's gift to Yujin (Page 266) a good choice on this particular day?
6. CONNECTIONS - Tanya's family reunion is an important day for her. If she and Yujin could discuss their very important days, what do you think they would say?
4. The author writes about different families instead of focusing on one to make the story more interesting. The author shows that the process of becoming an United States citizen is shared by many different families from many different countries.
ReplyDelete[2] I think the people that are in the story react differently to snow because they live in Mexico and it never snow's in Mexico.
ReplyDeleteI think people in the story react of snow differently because they probrally lived at a place where there was no snow and they have never seen it before.
