Oct 22

Hello Everyone!  

As we are nearing the end of Grapes of Wrath, I want you to start thinking of the implications of the text (why do we care about Grapes of Wrath, how does it affect me now?).


For Homework:

Compare the lives of the Joad family to the lives of the Native Americans in Wounded Knee.

Hint: The Joad family had to leave their farm because of the Dust Bowl and their inability to pay back the banks.  Why did Native Americans have to leave their homelands?

1.) Use at least three sentences 
2.) Provide specific examples
3.) Show your knowledge of the books!  Now is your time to show off!

You can answer int he comment section below OR turn in a hard copy during class.
